Person:Henrietta Jackson (11)

The 1900 census was helpful in confirming that the Henrietta who married James O. Brower was the same Henrietta who was daughter of Reuben and Margarett. Merton was the son of Henrietta's brother, Thomas. Note that though James O. Brower was born in Massachusetts, his parents were born in New York.

Note that in 1900 Henrietta was living next hh to siblings Josephine, James and Andrew Jackson. Josephine was married to William H. Abrams. I'm still looking for any possible relationship between the siblings and Henrietta. No marriage has so far been found for James or Andrew and it appears they lived all their lives with one or the other of an Abrams family.
