James Penny
1855 Illinois State Census LaSalle Manlius
Unfortunately this household is on the bottom line and the census taker wrote his totals on this line. Can not make out how many people in the household or age ranges. Is this the right family? Not enough information. Note: In the 1860 census Rhoda Penny is living in Manlius so this is a definite possibility.
