In the Federal Cenuses of 1900 and 1910, the family is living at Cambridge, Middlesex Co., MA. Charles is a plumber at the gas company.

In the Federal Census of 1920, Charles & Catherine, ages 53 & 54, are still at Cambridge. With them is son Edward 30, and his wife Georgianna B. 38 b Scotland.

They are still all together at Cambridge in 1930, with two grandsons added to the household.

Charles & Catherine's marriage record identifies his parents as Seneca and "Leach" -- his mother's maiden name.

Charles married Catherine Devine 18 Sep 1888, Cambridge, Middlesex Co., MA. Catherine was born 1864, Boston, MA; died Aft 1 Apr 1930, MA. [Group Sheet]

According to the marriage record, Catherine's parents were John & Mary.

Notes:

In the Federal Census of 1860, Seneca and Mary F. Remington, ages 24 and 18, are living in Lansingburgh, Rensselaer Co., NY. Seneca is a power (?) brush maker.

In the Federal Census of 1870, the family is still at Lansingburgh: Seneca 34 NY, Mary 28 NY, Albert 6 NY, and Chas 4 NY. Seneca is a brush maker and Mary is a dress maker.

In the Federal Census of 1880, "Senica" & Frances Remington, ages 44 & 38, are living on Summer Street in Somerville, Middlesex Co., MA. Children in the household are: Albert 16 and Charles 14. Seneca is still a brush maker; Frances is a dress maker. Perhaps her name is Mary Frances.

I found Seneca's middle initial in Albert's death record.

Seneca died at age 54 y 3 m 1 d. Cause of death -- phthisis, a type of tuberculosis. His death record identifies his parents as Norman (b Lansingburgh) and Emma E. (b Saratoga).

Seneca married Mary F. Leach Bef 1 Jun 1860, NY. Mary was born Abt 1842, Lansingburgh, Rennselaer Co., NY; died 1 Oct 1894, Boston, Suffolk Co., MA. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

According to the death record, Mary died at age 53 of meningitis (prob). Her birthplace is given as Lansingburgh, but the names of her parents are missing.

Notes:

In the 1850 Federal Census, the family is at Lansingburgh, Rensselaer, NY: Norman 30 NY, Jane 29 Ireland, Senaca 16 NY, Edward 8 NY, Charles 5 NY, Francis 2 NY; Mary Waterman 18 NY and Permilla Wallace 65 VT. Norman is a brush maker.

In the 1860 Federal Census, the family is still at Lansingburgh: Norman 47 NY, Jane 42 Ireland, Edward 18 NY, Charles 14 NY, Frances 11 NY, and Harriet 5 NY. Norman's occupation is given as gentleman.

In the 1870 Federal Census, the family is still at Lansingburgh: Norman 57 NY, Mary J. 52 Ireland, Harriet 15 NY, and John Cozzens 65 Ireland. Norman is a tax collector.

I found the name of Norman's first wife in Seneca's death record at Boston, MA; Norman's birthplace as Lansingburgh also came from this death record.

Norman married Emma E. Unknown Abt 1833, NY. Emma was born Abt 1813, Saratoga, NY; died Bef 1840. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

I have made an assumption that Emma was Norman's first wife, as her name is given as mother in Seneca's death record at Boston, MA.
