Hi, I've been reading the listers messages for several months without finding any helpful clues to the parents of Electra Minerva Washburn b.9 Feb 1787 in CT. In 1833 she was living in Chili, Monroe, NY with husband Amasa Franklin. I believe she had a brother David and a sister Rowena, among others. Her parents were living in Geauga Co. OH by that time but I cannot find their names. Does anyone know of this family or anything about the Rowena in this census for Georgia, Franklin, VT. I know that Electra's Rowena died in 1833 but perhaps this is a family name and could help lead me to my family. Thanks.
