In Reply to: My Sullivans by John Sullivan of 8779

Hi John:

If this is the right family, I found them here in 1870:

1870; Census Place: Tama, Tama, Iowa; Roll: M593_420; Page: 338; Image: 676.
Charles Sullivan age 25~carpenter~born Ohio
Eliza E age 23~keeping house~born Ohio
John age 2~born Iowa
Elizabeth (Stevens?) age 50 born Ohio

Name: Charles E. Sullivan
Death Date: 03 Sep 1870
Page #: 188
Birth Date: 1844
Cemetery: Oak Hill
Town: Tama
Relative: 26
Level Info: Gravestone Records of Tama County, Ia.

An Eliza E Greenlee filed for a widow's pension for Charles E. Sullivan. If you haven't obtained his service records I would suggest that you do that. Charles was in the K 47 Iowa Inf and K 6 Iowa Cavl.

I don't know if this is Eliza and John, but it fits.

1880; Census Place: Salt Creek, Tama, Iowa; Roll: T9_365; Family History Film: 1254365; Page: 577.2000; Enumeration District: 332; Image: 0621

1900; Census Place: Belle Plaine, Benton, Iowa; Roll: T623 417; Page: 14A; Enumeration District: 1

Mary Sullivan 23 b. PA
Charles A Sullivan 2

1910; Census Place: Belle Plaine Ward 3, Benton, Iowa; Roll: T624_391; Page: 15A; Enumeration District: 2;
Household Members: Name Age
John Sullivan 42
Mary Sullivan 35 b. Austria
Charles Sullivan 12
Violet Sullivan 9
Edith Sullivan 7

1920;Census Place: Belle Plaine Ward 3, Benton, Iowa; Roll: T625_477; Page: 7A; Enumeration District: 3; Image: 724.
Household Members: Name Age
John C Sullivan 52
Mary Sullivan 45
Charles A Sullivan 21
Violet M Sullivan 18
Edith Sullivan 16
Wilma Sullivan 6
Albert Sullivan 4 6/12

If this is the right family, then it looks like your family was in the US prior to 1867 and even 1844, if Charles was born in Ohio.

I can look for the family in Ohio prior to 1867 if you do not have that information.

Good Luck and have fun on your trip!
Laura
