Notes |
- In the 1850 Federal Census, Solomon is 45 and Jane A. is 25 (looks as if 2 was overwritten as 3, but note ages in later censuses). They are living at Waldboro, Lincoln Co., Maine. There are five children in the household: Oliver 19, Bertha M. 16, John A. 15, Warren 5, & Alma F. 1. I assume that Jane is Solomon's second wife, and that the three older children had a different mother. The family is living next to George Achorn and family one one side, and Jacob Achorn and family on the other. They are also near Thomas Achorn.
In 1860 Solomon is 54 and Jane A. is 36. They are still at Waldboro, ME. Four children are in the household: Warren 15, Alma F. 11, Everett S. 9, & Susan E. 5. They are living near other Achorn families: Elbridge S., James, John, Jacob, Martin, & Moses.
In 1870 Solomon is 63 and Jane A. is 46. They are still at Waldboro, nearby other Achorn families: Thomas R., Alanson, Jacob, John, Nathaniel, & James.
In 1880 Solomon & Jane A. Achorn, ages 74 & 56 are still at Waldboro. With them is granddaughter Opal H. Achorn, 12; she seems to be Warren's daughter by a first marriage (see notes for Warren). Also in the household is Solomon & Jane's son Warren 35, his wife Laura A. 30, their son Jasper M. 3, and Ida B. Robinson 12. Ida is either Laura's sister or daughter. In this census, three other Achorn families are nearby: John, Jacob, & Lowell.
