Census Sunday: Great-Great, Part 3

Since my great-grandparents were still living with their parents in 1910 and I already covered this generation of ancestors, you can read about them here.  And, this is also the case for the 1900 US census.  You can read about them here.

So, here they are in the 1880 or 1881 (with the exception of the four who were still in Italy):

John Grant Allen
I haven't been able to find him in 1880.  He would have been about ten and was likely living in Trumbull County, Ohio where the rest of his family was.  Twelve years separated John from his next oldest surviving sibling and by 1880 all but John seem to have established their own household.  The exception is his brother, Robert, who was living with their father in 1880.  They were working as laborers in Niles and John was probably with them though not enumerated.

Marion A. Wood

Charles S. Wood Family
1881 Census of Canada
McKillop, Huron Centre, Ontario

Marion was ten and living with her parents, Charles S. Wood and Diadame Beam, and her siblings.  While Diadame was a native Canadian and Charles had spent the majority of his life there, Marion and several of her siblings were born in the US.  The family had relocated back to Canada around 1876 and came back to the US not long after this census.

Frederick Rendle Croad

Frederick Rendle Croad
1881 England Census
Midsomer Norton, Somerset

Fred was fifteen and working as a laborer.  He was over forty miles away from home and his family.  While he is listed as a 'labourer' many of the people on the page were in the mining industry and I have to wonder if Fred was as well.  Where he was living, in Midsomer Norton, was in Somerset's coalfield.
