Civil War Census

Wednesday, April 7th, 2010

Does anyone here have the ancestry.com package?

I have bought the three month world deluxe package and I have to say that I’m very happy I did. However I’m having trouble tracing back a woman who was born in 1833. I know her first name is Lucy and her middle initial is A. And from the 1880 census I know that both her parents were born in New Hampshire as was she. She was married to a man named Charles F. Waite (my great great great grandfather) who served in the civil war on the union side. I know he was born in Massachusetts as were his parents. And their residency during the census was in Lynn, Essex, Massachusetts. Can Someone please help me?
And for additional information they had 5 children by 1880. And all but one were born in New York.

Irving Waite 21
Elemor E. Waite 19

WAIT, Charles F, 45, shoemaker, Male, Mass.
Lucy, 36, Female New Hampshire
Alice P, 14, Female, New York
Irving C, 11, Male, New York

Roll: M653_849; Page: 0; Image: 528

Charles F Wait, 33, boot & shoemaker, Male, Mass.
Lucy A Wait, 26, Female, New Hampshire
Alice P Wait, 4, Female, New York
Irvin C Wait, 1, Male, New York
Orison Meader, 32, boot & shoemaker, Male, New Hampshire
Olive B Meader, 2 months, Female, New York
Charles W Day, 23, boot & shoemaker, Male, Maine.
Margeret Sokylmyer, 19, Female, servant, New York

I did try to look in the 1850 census, but I think it’s best to track down a marriage license for Charles and Lucy, or a baptismal record for one of the children that gives Lucy’s maiden name, to be certain that you are following the right family into New England. Also, keep the surname Meader in mind. He could be Lucy’s brother or brother-in-law.
