I am reposting...I have a new email address.....please respond if anyone can help me...thanks....
I am searching for my gr grandfather's sister. In the 1870 Fed. census I find William, Mary Gilcrest and son, Laurence (I believe that is the spelling of the son's name...it is hard to read on the census--it states that he was born in Sept of the year before the census.) I am thinking that Mary Gilcrest age 22 born IND is the daughter of the couple just two households ahead of them.....William and Frances Ewing. They had a daughter, Mary.....in 1860 she was 12 and born in IND....I find no trace of her or William Gilcrest after the 1870 census.
If you can help I would be delighted with any information that you can give me. Thanks ever so much.......Linda Ziemann
