  • Notes 
    • In 1860, the family is living in Ward 6, Providence, RI. In 1870, the family is living in Ward 7, Providence, RI. Jeremiah, the father of Alpheus, is living with them in both censuses.

      I am not sure that Francis is their son, as he seems older than the other children, and was born before the marriage. (needs more research)
