(Roll: T9-496 - Pg 171) CENSUS: 1895 Iowa State Collection - Sioux City, Woodbury County PEAVEY, Allen - age 32 - b. abt 1863 in Maine - Occupation: Sales Nellie - age 28 - b. abt 1867 in Maine Alice - age 6 - b. abt 1889 in Iowa Religion: Episcipal (Roll: IA1885_415 - Line 24) CENSUS: 1910 U.S. Federal - Worcester, Worcester County, Massachusetts PEAVEY, Albion B. - age 48 - b. abt 1862 in Maine - Occupation: Traveling Salesman Wife - Nellie R. - age 42 - b. abt 1868 in Maine Dau - Alice H. - age 21 - b. abt 1889 in Iowa Race: White Married for 24 years (1886) Nellie had one child - one living All three can read and write They rent their home. Nellie's parents were born in Maine Albion's parents were born in Maine (Roll: T624_633 - Pg 1A) These census families seem to fit with Nellie R. French and Albion or Allen Peavey. The age for Nellie fits and also her birth place fits. This needs more research so keep in mind that this is so far just a guess. (Marjorie Gisi) |
