Melinda,
Daniel Saliday and family are in the 1850 Census East Lackawannock Township, Mercer County, Pa.William is living with them listed as 20 years old, and born in Centre County, Pa.I have only a sentence written in a letter to my parents that says William moved to Jasper Co., Iowa and was lost track of there. This William would have been 30 in the 1860 Census, and probably not living at home.The child Susan that was 5 years old in 1850 listedliving with them was 15 in the 1860 Census.The 1870 Census Hickory Township, Mercer Co., Pa. has Daniel living with his son John married to Amy.Daniel was 68 years old.Hetty died in 1863.You will find Susan and two sons also living with John and Amy.Susan's husband Henry Harkless and two young daughters of Susan and Henry all died from eating poison mushrooms.The remaining two children George and Rolla are listed with Susan on the 1870 Census.
Hope this helps.
Sylvia
