Is there one or two “boarders” with your family in the census? Just because they are listed as a “boarder” doesn’t mean that they aren’t related. Boarders could easily be nephews, nieces, or other family members temporarily staying in the household. They may be a clue. Try and find them ten years earlier or ten years later and keep the names in case they appear in other documents. ———————————— Check out GenealogyBank’s Offer for Tip of the Day Fans!
