<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bakersgma, post: 69437, member: 59&quot;]The J stands for Jeremiah. He was retired by 1920 (although still working in 1915) and died (and is buried) in Caldwell City in 1927.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m thinking that the reason I can&#039;t find him in the 1880 census is that he was travelling back to PA (from Iowa) to get his father Isaac. Isaac is living with him in Caldwell in the 1885 Kansas Census, but was still in Bangor, Northampton County, PA in 1880 living with a widowed daughter and a 20 yr old unmarried son. Two of his other sons were living in the next 2 houses with their families and all 3 young men were working in the local slate factory.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
