Surnames: Titchener
I'm looking for information on my ggg grandfather George Titchener. The earliest I can find him is an 1880 Census placing him in DeWitt, Saline, Nebraska with his wife Louisa (whose maiden name I do not know), and his son George Washington Titchener, my gg grandfather. Census gives England as his birthplace but I haven't found anything more specific. GW Titchener was born in Omaha in 1872, so they had to be in Nebraska at least as early as that, but I don't have enough information to have any success with immigration records or getting any further back into anything that may pop up in England. Also, as I'm sure you know, Titchener can be spelled any number of ways, even to the point of being unrecognizable - which makes blind general searches by surname nearly impossible.

Anyone have any information on this family or suggestions?
