Classification: Query
Surnames: Seffens - Secor - Henry
I am seeking information on Mildred C Seffens. census info gives her birth as WI 1861 - parents f:ENG m: OH. Mildred Married a James Secor in Jefferson Co. Nebraska (marriage lists 1864-1880 - she listed as Milla C Seffens) The are both listed in the 1880 census lists.
James was born in MI - and their first (?) child Edgar (Charles Edgar) Secor 28 Dec 1881 Janesville, Hillside Co., MI -

Years later we find Mildred in 1910 census in White Pine County, NV - widowed - living with son Edgar now a General Practitioner (doctor). Mildred acted as nurse.

They must have arrived in NV after 1900 as they are not in the census for that year. Although, the state museum has posted a picture of his 'shingle' which is in their keeping. They state that he used this sign while in practice in Tuscarora and Cherry Creek (where he met Clara M Henry).

By 1920 census, no mention of Mildred. Edgar is now listed as Charles E and married to Clara M Henry-born NV- (her mother was a Hebenstreit of WI though born in GY). Living in Elko, NV.

I have yet to send out for their marriage record. Nebraska is reputed to have very inclusive records.
