Notes

Updated September 3, 2005. Compiled by Howder (www.howderfamily.com) from the following source(s):

(1) 1850 United States Census for Michigan, Hillsdale Co., the Village of Hillsdale: Household 83; December 18, 1850.

Adeline [Harwood] Howder is married to Adam Howder, head of household. She is 40 years old and born in New York. Adeline's sister Salina Harwood is a resident, as is Adam's nephew Christopher J. Dickerson (listed as "Dickinson"), along with about 20 other hotel lodgers.

(4) 1860 United States Census for Michigan, Hillsdale Co., Cambria Twp. (Sylvanus Post Office): Page 213; August 10, 1860.

Adeline [Harwood] Howder is married to Adam Howder, head of household. She is 50 years old and born in New York. Adeline's sister Salina Harwood is also a resident.

(3) 1870 United States Census for Michigan, Hillsdale Co., Reading Twp. (Reading Post Office): page 41; dwelling 366; family 377; July 20, 1870.

Adeline (Harwood) Howder is married to Adam Howder, head of household. She was born in New York, is 60 years old and is keeping house. Her sister Selina is also a resident, as are various waiters, servants and other staff in the hotel that Adam owns.

(4) LDS FamilySearch 1880 United States Census database for Reading, Hillsdale Co., MI. Family History Library Film 1254581, NA Film Number T9-0581, Page 269C.

Adaline (Harwood) Howder is listed as 73 years old and born in New York, as were here parents. She is a widow and is keeping house. Her sister Selina resides there as well, but is listed under the surname Howder. This is an error. Selina never married and thus retained the surname Harwood.

(6) Sketches of Old Hillsdale, Historical and Genealogical, Volume II. Vivian Lyon Moore, for the Daughters of the American Revolution library. (undated, probably 1940's), pages 85-87.
