I am looking for information on a Sewell B. Scribner who is listed on the 1880 Indiana, Dearborn County, Aurora census. He is listed with children Anna, age 19 b. in Iowa, Jennette, age 17 b. in Iowa and Lincoln, age 14 b. in Indiana. Sewell is listed as a widow, he is listed as 50 years old, b. NY, father b. NH, mother b. NH. He is listed as a carpenter.

I can not seem to locate this family on the 1870 Census. For that matter I can not find Sewell Scribner in any other census. I have Anna and Jennette/Jeanette's death certificates and Anna's states Sewell Scribner b. NY has her father and Mary Radspinner b. Germany as her mother. Jeanette's lists Lynn Scribner as father, place born, unknown, mother unknown.

I have found Anna and Jeanette in all census after the 1880 census, until their deahts, unable to locate Sewell or Lincoln.

I would appreciate any thoughts or comments on this family.

Thank you, Debbie
