1870 United States Census

At first glance this doesn't look to be a match to the George Dymond of this profile, mainly because he lives in a different town with people who are not his parents and he is only 13 years old. When examining the digital copy of the census, I saw that George was listed as a farm laborer. After checking googlemaps.com, I found that Stephentown and New Lebanon are only seven miles apart. It's entirely possible that George Dymond was working on a nearby farm and was counted in the farm owner's family because he was working there when the census was taken.

This census shows George's elusive first wife. They must have married by 1877, enabling them to have a two-year-old in 1880. His two oldest children from the 1900 census, Luther and Howard, most likely were the sons of Abbie Dymond, along with Burton mentioned in this census.

If George Dymond was married in 1890 and his two oldest children were over 12 years old, then he may have been married once before he married Laura Pratt. The 1880 census reveals that his first wife was named Abba and there was only one year age difference between them. She died in 1887. He married his second wife, Laura Pratt, married 15 May 1890.
