Research Notes

It appears that Mary Morse and Inez May Morse may be the same person. Mary is listed in the 1860 Census as age 4 with birthdate of 1856 (no Inez is listed). In the 1870 Census no Mary Morse is listed, but there is and Inez Morse, age 13, with birthdate of 1857. I have included both census records for the family here for reference.
