In Reply to: Still loking for in- law Worthington's by Dalene Worthington of 361

Hi Dalene, When we're working on our family tree we have to have a method to our madness. Once we gather basic essential information on our people, we want to find them on all avail. census records. This gives us more data to work with when looking for othe genealogy records such as death etc., So, assuming you have them on the 1880 census you should have posted a request to find them in 1900 rather than this vague post which says nothing. Clara and the boys are in Geneseo, henry co. in Il. Clara is enumerated as the head of household but enumerated as married, not a widow. Was this a mistake on the census? I had no idea but I kept looking for Henry. I found one who fits, (even tho you gave us no circa birth year or nativity for him in your post.) There is a Henry Worthington in 1900 Mercer co, Il. enumerated as a brother in the household of a Mary Higbee. Is this your Henry? Did Mary's husband recently pass and Henry was there for support or was he possibly just visiting? Just one of the several mysteries of the universe we encounter in our never ending quest Dalene. Dick
