James D. Anderson
DOB: October 5, 1830, Ohio. 8th child (but I think he
and George W. were twins!)
PARENTS: George and Elizabeth Anderson
DOD: January 1, 1883
SPOUSE: Margaret Ann Kirkbride
DOB: 6-27-1838

They are both buried in the Mt. Zion Cemetery, McConnellsville, Ohio.

CENSUS RECORDS
September 25th, 1850 Bristol Twp.
visit 1445 line 11
June 25th, 1860 Bristol Twp. visit
643 line 30 -
James is listed as being 29. Margaret is 23. William is 4, Henry is 3 and Hannah
is 2. They are shown living right next door to James' brother George W. (G.W. as
it's listed in the census) with his wife and children. Also Elizabeth is living
with G.W.
July 13th, 1870 Bristol Twp. visit
120 line 31 -
James is listed as 39, Margaret is 32, William T. 14, Henry A. 12, Hannah E. 11,
Oliver Perry 10, Mary E., 6, James, 5, John, 2, and Alice 1.
June 17th, 1880 Bristol Twp. visit 171 line 36 -
In the 1880 Census James is listed as
living next door to his mother Elizabeth. . The children that were living with him then were: Henry 23,
Hannah 21, Oliver 18, James 15, John 13, Alice 11, Webster 8, Edward 8, and Ruphus 4. There is no mention of Margaret, and since Rupfus was born in 1876 and
Margaret died in 1876 that is what leads me to believe she possibly died while
in child birth.
James and Margaret's Children:
*Information on George was obtained at the McConnelsville Library, Sept 15th, 2006 in the genealogical department from the Morgan County Births Volumn 1, 1867-1884. It listed his father as James Anderson and mother as Margaret Kirkpatrick. They lived in Bristol Twp. I was very surprised to find yet another child being born to James and Margaret. But pleased. I can't help but wonder if he died young because I do not find him in any of the census records.
