[flandrx-seeker.ged] Also Esabella, Isabelle Isabella is listed as the widow of Benjamin and "guardian ad lit em of Charlotte Anggevine Flandreau, a minor", in Benjamin's wil l and estate papers of 1844. The 1840 census of New Rochelle, Westchester County, New York, p .99 lists Benjamin Flandrow as the head of a household consistin g of of one white male 30-39, one white female 30-39, and one w hite female 10-14. One family member is listed as employed in a griculture. The woman is presumably Isabella and the girl is Ch arlotte. 1850 census for New Rochelle, Westchester County, page 179 [pag e 357]: House 235, family 295 Isabella Flandrau, 38, female, New York William Ramsey, 50, male, No occupation, $5000 in property, bor n in Ireland Charlotte Hudson, 19, female, born in New York Pamelia Flandrau, 32, female, born in New York Martha Flandrau, 15, female, born in New York Jane Coleston, 50, female, born in Scotland Mary A. Coleston, 24, female, born in Scotland There's an off-chance that Martha is Isabella's daughter or tha t Martha is the same person as Charlotte Flandreau. More likely , she is a young sister-in-law.
