Hi all, Could someone with access to the 1850 Mason County census please check for a listing of the following individual and her family:: Catherine Black, b. 22 FEb 1844 So she would have been approx 6 years old on the 1850 census. I have conflicting information regarding the names of Catherine's parents. For the sake of argument, I will list both couples: Jeremiah Black & Lucinda Croninger Black Sid Black & Frances Lamb Black (Most likely couple) It is known that there were other children in this family group. I don't have a dob for them. But their names were given as: Louise, Sarah, Mary, Emmerson, Peter, Nimrod & Martin Black. As always, I would appreciate whatever information you may be able to provide.
