It's a long story, but I'm trying to get as many pieces as I can to help me eliminate as much as match up. The children, Martha & Moses were living with William and Polly Lane -- they were not alone. The Lane family was on the last page of District 4, but the children are at the top of the next page which starts District 7. The children are the last 2 people listed for District 4. All of the other children were living in other households: Samuel, George, William, Charlotte & Mary. That's only 5 children, but there 8 total. We know that the baby, who was only a few weeks old, died shortly after their parents. This leaves me still with 2 children unaccounted for. I think they may be Martha & Moses, but they are living with the Lanes who have no connection to us. The other children were with other relatives, and this is how I've been able to verify they belong to our group of orphans. I was just hoping that since you're researching Moses, that you might know who the young boy (Moses) belonged to. Thanks anyway...
