1880 New Brunswick, NJ

Thomas A Edison, 32, b. Ohio, occ. scientist
Mary, wife, 24, b. NJ
Marion, dau, 7, b. NJ
Thomas E., son, 5, b. NJ
William L, son, 1, b. NJ

and a housekeeper and two house servants. One was born in  B N A, and written in her birth place is some word after the B N America. It looks like Biarh?? What do people think?

I find this entry interesting, as my gg grandfather worked for Edison (janitor, nothing glamorous), but one of his daughters was named Marion, and it isn't one of our family names. Hmmm.

Sligo: Davey (also Mayo), McCluskey, McNulty
