Amanda Butterfield Genealogy

I continued the search for the missing children of George Madison Canter with little luck. So I decided to take a step back generation-wise and focus on finding all birth records of George Madison's second daughter, Catharine Rebecca. Fortunately, I found that her first child, William Russel, was most likely illegitimate. The IGI lists an approximate marriage date Andrew Miller that I have yet to find proof of, but William Russel in life and on his birth record goes by the name of Canter. I am comfortable with the assumption that they were not married. Catharine married Thomas Eblin a couple of years after the birth of her first son, and with that husband she had 10 children (according to the 1910 census). I have found 9 so far, and in my most recent search, I uncovered a missing daughter, Elizabeth, who though born in 1897, died before the 1900 census. I have yet to find the birth records of most of the other children of Catharine and Thomas, as they seem to have been floating around three counties during that time.
