Can anyone tell me anything about this family? Precious states that she is married in the 1870 census, but does not show a husband. In 1880 she is listed as a widow. Would like to find her husband's name and her maiden name. Her son, Andrew, married Mary May, daughter of Joseph May and Harriett Miller.

Thanks,
Dawn
