!SOURCE: Email from Beverly H to Weldon Whipple, 11 Apr 2015. She notes the following:
Amy Jane Whipple b 1825 Waterford, NL, CT was the daughter of Anthony Whipple b abt 1780 (best guess) Waterford and Hannah Fargo b abt 1793 Waterford. Amy had siblings, Joanna and Minerva and probably others. Anthony was deceased or absent from the household by 1850 and Amy Whipple Capron can be found living with her mother Hannah.
1850 Census, Waterford, New London, CT (all b CT):
- Hannah Whipple, 56, b. CT
- Isaac Fargo, 40, Farmer (prob brother to Hannah), b. CT
- Betsey Fargo, 82, (if I'm reading the age correctly prob mother to Hannah and Issac), b. CT
- Amy Capron, 25, b. CT
- Joanna Whipple, 12, b. CT
- Charles S Capron, 1, (prob son of Amy and John S. Capron), b. CT
- Minerva Whipple 17, b. CT
In 1850 I believe Amy's husband is alive and in California but he either dies or does not return as in 1858 Amy marries husband #2 James Henry Rice. I do not find them in 1860 and Amy dies in 1868. Her second husband remarries and one of Amy's children with Capron is found living w/ him in 1870.
1870 Census, Waterford, New London, CT:
- James Rice, 45, Farmer, b. Ireland $2000 $500
- Cordelia, 25, keeping house, b. Ireland (2nd wife Mary Cordelia Hawkins)
- Anna Finell, 4, b CT
- John Rice, 8, CT
- Mary J Rice, 6, CT
- William Rice, 4, CT
- Daniel Rice, 1, CT
- Addison Capron, 17, laborer, b. CT (son of Amy and John S. Capron)
