July 10, 1860 – Nancy is back in Laban’s household — this time, her age is given as 40, which would have her born in 1820. Kitty MORRIS died sometime between the last census and this one. Seems Laban didn’t mind housing children who weren’t his own. In 1850, his daughter, Alpha’s, children from her first marriage, Nancy and Patrick NORRIS, are living in his house.
