TRYING TO FIND:

If anyone has information on the family on page 98 headed by Adaline in the 1870 listings below, let O.Kaser know. He *thinks* she was Susan Adaline/Angeline Walworth who married John Fish 2d in 1833.

The 1860 census has the family:
  John Fish 61, laborer
  Susan A.  52
  Roswell   21  fisherman
  Asa       17
  Julia     15
  Nancy     14
  Thomas     8
  John       4

The 1850 census named John's wife Adaline and also gave him a 15-year-old daughter Temperance. I suspect she is my ancestor Adelia Temperance Fish.

If anyone can help, send info to: O. Kaser owen@unbsj.ca
