I too am looking for info on Ellen Kachline wife of Edward Young Sterner. I have a 1870 census that has her married to George Sterner. Then ta 1880 census has EY Sterner married to Emma. I was,and still am, confused because
in 1870 Ellen(40) and George (40) had Margaret (15), Emma(13), Harry(11), Mary A (9),Wm. H (7), Ida M (6), Edward(5) and Franklin(3) living with them. On the 1880 census those same children appear (age exactly 10 years older) living with EY Sterner (48) and Emma (49) along with Charles (22), Calvin (14), Bessie (8), and George (4). Is Emma really Ellen?
Did George Sterner die and Ellen married his brother or cousin Edward Young Sterner between 1870 and 1880?
Ellen is my GGGrandmother on my GF side
