Hello! I figured it was worth a shot to see if anyone else has more luck than I have had : ) I've been stuck on Catharine Babcock and her husband, Charles Robinson, for years. I've been trying to locate records that give more information on who either of their parents were. I've been listing every source possible on their profiles, but I still have had little to no luck going further back. Any help would be much appreciated!

    Thanks Betty! I don't have an Ancestry membership, so I have a feeling there are certain sources I simply don't have access to online when researching on my own.
    FYI - You can find the same  1855 census on familysearch at: https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:K6QP-3F9  which is free/doesn't require paid subscription.

    Jayme,

    This is the place to ask. I'm making the most of my thirty-five bucks a month.
