Mina Adams.  My grandmother said her real name was Jemima.  Her mother was born in England, but not sure about her father.

The 1900 census shows Mina Cline as head of household and married for 3 years. This would indicate she married Dwyte abt 1897 and that Louise and Douglas are most likely children from Dwyte's previous marriage.  Dwyte was not listed with the family on this census so he may have died as early as 1900.  Mina was listed as mother of 11 with only 5 living and the address was a rented house at 53 North St. in Auburn. 

Auburn, New York 1906 shows Mina Cline, widow Dwight M,

1920 census shows Mina as head of household, widowed, age 72.  Living with her are son Dwight Cline age 23 and brother Daniel Adams age 60.

Mina died in 1929 and is buried in Fort Hill Cemetery. 

Unfortunately, James is the mystery.

I have checked the Cayuga site, but unfortunately they don't have 1875 for Auburn.  James and Mina married after 1870 ( I found her still living with her parents on the 1870 census).  I can not find them at all on the 1880 census.  Since James died in 1888, the 1875 census is my last hope of finding them together on a census.

Thanks,

Thanks for your patience with me on this.  Questions from the 1871 census:
I am wondering if the Anson and Andrew found are the right ones.  Melindas age is 10 years off.  This could just be an error, but then I am wondering what would have happened to the children listed. It's possible that the Polly Ann shown on the 1881 is now living with her grandparents as the age is the same. But what about Frederick and Howard?  And where did Harry come from?

The family being in North Dakota makes sense as I have located Titus and Annie there in 1900 too.  This is what I have so far for Titus:

1891 census (30) married to Annie (22) with son Hugh (1) Hinchinbrooke, Addington, Ont,

1900 census in North Dakota, McHenry County with his wife and 2 children (Hugh and Jennie) Note:  There were a lot of Wagar families living in same town.  There is also a Levi Card age 33 living in same town.

1906 census (40) in Strathcona, Alberta, Canada wife Annie and children (Hugh, Jennie, Luella)

1911 Canada census Alberta, Canada Town of Wetaskewin with
Wife Annie (42), Dau Jennie (17) and Dau Luella (5)
1911 / Alberta (Province) / Strathcona (District)/ 47 Wetaskiwin (Subdistrict)/ page 33

Titus and Annie Card came to the Ferry Point District about 1915.  They lived on the SW 4, 44, 18 where Titus farmed and worked in the coal mine.  It was on this place that Titus built a barn on the hillside.  The bottom half is cement and that barn is still standing to this day (Rudy Gerber's site).  From there they moved to Meeting Creek where they lived until their deaths a few months apart in 1938.  They are both buried in the Camrose Cemetery.

Name: Card, Titus L.
Dates: 1859-1938   
Cemetery: As The Wheel Turns Camrose
Cemetery number: 324
Plot Number: C 46 NNE
Legal description of cemetery location: SE-34-046-20-W4
(see pic of headstone)

Annie is the mystery.  I went to my local library here in Chicago to access Ancestry.com.  On the marriage record for Anson and Malinda Peters he is listed as a bachelor and she as a widow.  So she did marry another Peters prior to Anson.  So unless his being listed as a bachelor is a mistake it makes this all the more confusing. 

Thanks so much for you help on this!!!
