that pregnancy <strong>and</strong> died in childbirth.<br />

The 1870 census verifies part <strong>of</strong> this table, specifically John, Mary, Isabelle <strong>and</strong> Laura because<br />

that is <strong>the</strong> family in 1870. Son M.E. had died in1864 while son while George W. had died in<br />

1869.<br />
