Research Notes

Unable to locate Shriver Andrew Hull in the 1860 census with his parents. Shriver was not enumerated in the 1860 census with his parents and siblings, Sarah, Samuel, David and Margaret. Are Shriver and David S the same person? Shriver has confirmed DNA matches in this branch of the family through his daughters, Plezzie, Edith, Maude, and Bessie. Why wouldn't he be listed with his family in the census? By the 1870 census, his parents were deceased.

Granddaughter Olive Arnett, daughter of Pheobe (Plezzie) in census record listed with 1 living child.
