My gggrandfather was William H. Russell (b. 1833 d. bet 1871 & 1898). He married Annie M. Bradbury, dau. of Isaac and Abigail Small (Lane) Bradbury. She was b. 3/9/1833 and d. aft 1898. They had 8 children who lived: Emma A. b. abt 1847, Mary A. b. 1855, Jabez Herbert (twin) b. 3/2/1859, Jayson H. (twin) b. 3/2/1859, Charlotte (Lottie) b. abt 1865, Abraham Lincoln b. 1867, William B. b. 1868, and Julia L. b. abt 1881. William B. my ggrandfather married Annie J. Plummer, dau of Charles H. Plummer and Lavinia (or Leona) Bachelder. She was b. 12/1/1873 in Linneus, and d. 1/25/1962 in Troy, Maine. If these folks fit anywhere into your tree, I would love to know the particulars. I am most interested to see who may have been William H. Russell's siblings and parents. There is a possibility that he may have been included in the 1870 Census as the 2 year old son (making the birthdate correct) of Boardman Russell and Marcia A. Russell. This same Boardman Russell (Age 14) is shown on the 1860 census as the son of John Russel (note 1 l.) and Margaret Russell. The 1850 census showed John Russell and Margaret had a son Dana B. Russell (age 4)...could he be later known as Boardman? If any of this "clicks", I'd love to hear from you.
