Notes

Updated September 11, 2025. Compiled by Howder (www.howderfamily.com) from the following source(s):

(1) 1860 United States Census for Michigan, Shiawassee Co., Twp. of Perry (Perry Post Office): Pages 216-217; July 21, 1860.

Myra CUMMINS appears to be listed in the record, but with either some major discrepancies or typographical errors: The oldest child of Joseph and Pheobe H. CUMMINS is listed as Myson, a 7 year old male born in Michigan. Likely this is actually Myra.

(2) 1870 United States Census for Michigan, Shiawassee Co., Perry Twp., Perry Post Office: page 5; dwelling 34; family; 36; September 5, 1870.

Myra CUMMINS is the daughter of Jeptha and Pheobe CUMMINS. She is 17 years old, born in Michigan, and is at home.
