Hi, Sylvia, I do not find any Branch people in the 1860 census for Bennington Co. However, there is the family of Alpheus and Lizzie Branch with children, Philip and Lizzie, living in Manchester Ward 3, Hillsborough Co., NH. Alpheus is 32, Lizzie is 26, Philip is 6 and Lizzie is 2. Living with them is George Gratier, age 25. Alpheus Branch was born in RI. Hope this helps, Joann Sylvia J. Bugbee wrote: > Thank you!

Ok--that clarifies it--the entire record was inserted in the Vermont index by mistake, not just the wrong state and county. Thanks so much! Sylvia On Tue, 18 Nov 2008, Joann H.
