Who was Abigail Burlingame of Rhode Island?
I am working on the family of Nehemiah Young and Maria Post.I appear to be at a dead end and can't find either of their parents.
Nehemiah Young was born January 6, 1813 in Rhode Island and his wife, Maria Post was born about 1816 in Pennsylvania.They were married in Munson township, Geauga County, Ohio January 23, 1835.They resided at Manchester, Boone County, Illinois by 1850 according to the census. Nehemiah died November 28, 1860 and his wife after 1870.I hadn't been able to take them back any further.
I have noticed an older woman by the name of Abigail Burlingame living with them in the census records.She appears to be according to the calcuations been born around 1799 in Rhode Island.She is listed in the census as living with Nehemiah and his wife in both the 1850 and the 1860 census in Manchester, Boone County, Illinois.After Nehemiah died she was still living with Maria in the 1870 census.I know nothing more about her.
Is she simply a boarder or is she a relative?Any help would be appreciated.
