In the 1860 Federal Census, the family at Hall, Bureau Co., IL, is as follows: James Cassford 60 Eng, Jane Cassford 45 NY, Henry Cassford 16 PEI, and John Cassford 14 PEI.
Going back a decade to 1850, James Casford b England is living in Waukesha, Waukesha Co., WI. He has a wife and seven children all born PEI. Unfortunately, the census gives only the initials for everyone in the family except James. The last two are H & J, and these are probably the Henry & John we see in 1860 in IL. Their ages agree, also. What is different is that James's wife was b England, and her initial is "M." This suggests that Jane was his second wife.
In the Federal Census of 1870, James and Jane Casford, ages 67 and 62, are still living at Hall, Bureau Co., IL. Census data says James was born in England and Jane in Canada.
