What > District is she living in on the 1910 Upshur County census? The copy of the 1910 census that I have is for the Washington District! Susannah is shown as living in the household of her daughter and son-in-law, Patrick Martin and his wife, Nancy. It is difficult to read the printed portion of the census form, but I guess it is Household 181 or 183, and Family 181 or 183. The Supervisor's District No. is 3, enumeration District No. 153, Sheet No. llB - 737. It shows Susannah's birth and that of her mother and father as West Virginia. I have a Certificate of Marrage between James T. Friel in Pocahontas County, WV, on December 25, 1896, which shows Susannah's age as 33 years. This would make her born ca 1833; the 1910 census shows her age as 77, so a date of 1914, would be just about right. Thanks for all your help. I have been looking for Susannah everywhere, so I hope we can locate her.
