Census information for Charles Taylor Fay and his family |
|
Charles Taylor, who is now 61, is living in Grafton with Relief (also 61), and two of his living children, Elmira, age 32, and Ellen H., age 20. Ellen H. is clearly Ellen Harriet or Harriet Ellen.
Nancy M., born 1/20/1815, married Dexter Brigham Hathaway (int. 8/26/1836, m. 9/14/1836). They should be in the 1850 census in Acton, but the image seems to have been lost.
John P., now 24, is living in Worcester and working as a machinist.
Charles Henry, born 1/24/1820, married Lydia Willington in 1836, and they, and their two children, are living in Northbridge.
|
Charles is gone; Relief, age 71, is living with Almira in Grafton, in the household of Nancy and Dexter Hathaway and their three children.
|
|
Charles H. and Lydia live in Northbridge, just south of Grafton. Frances married Solon Bryant; they had a daughter Ellenor, born 1867. Frances died at or soon after Ellenor's birth, and Solon is living with Charles and Lydia and Ellenor, now a three year old.
|
|
In 1880, Almira has joined John P., who is living in Worcester with his family. Right next door are Lydia, now a widow, and the Bryants, including Solon's new wife, Sarah A.
