Following Family on the Census -- England


Today I will conclude this series of the items from my census posters of 2012. This set shows that sometimes families can become far apart in location during the years. My 3rd great-grandfather William England and his brothers illustrate this using their census records.
























So you can learn that in 1850 they were in:
  • Marion County Illinois
  • Davis County Iowa
  • Callaway County Missouri
  • Montgomery County Missouri
By 1860 they were in:
  • Cooke County Texas
  • Hunter County Kansas
  • Callaway County Missouri
  • Montgomery County Missouri
  • Davis County Iowa
Then in 1870, after the Civil War they were found in:
  • Grayson County Texas
  • Jackson County Kansas
  • Lake County California
  • Montgomery County Missouri

So in three censuses the six brothers were in 1 county in Illinois, 1 county in Iowa, 2 counties in Missouri, 2 counties in Texas, 2 counties in Kansas and 1 county in California for a total of 9 different counties.
