Research Notes

The 1870 census from Mi with Horace as head lists his father's pob as Rhode Island.^[3]

The 1850 census for Leicester, Livingston, New York shows:

Charlotte Lapham Female 64 Massachusetts, United States

Julia Lapham Female 28 New York, United States

Alonzo Lapham Male 26 New York, United States

Eliza J Lapham Female 23 New York, United States

Horace Lapham Male 21 New York, United States

Sidne Lapham Male 16 New York, United States

The two preceding lines are: Alanson Lapham 29 & Lucinda 22. Both noted as "married within the year"[ Alansing & Luanda in "Laphams"]^[4] Charlotte & Amlich could have separated or divorced but I'm assuming he died before 1850.

By the 1855 NYS census Horace is Head of Household with Charlotte listed later. ^[5]
