Research Notes

In 1860 US Census, Moline, Rock Island, Illinois, page 544 I found Eliza A. Lowther (Lather). Same husband and children as in 1850 US Census, Mercer, Illinois; however, in 1860, now there are two Waterman's living at residence, Ira age 32 and Julia F. age 22. Also found, North America, Family Histories, 1500-2000 for Ira D. Waterman. This lists Ira D.'s father as Ira and also lists the senior Ira having a daughter named Eliza A born abt. 1809. Perhaps by the time of the 1860 Census her brother Ira the junior had moved in with them. These two clues are the only ones that I have found concerning Eliza A. Waterman. I hope someone is able to move forward with this information and successfully make the connection back to Eliza's nee Waterman.
