www!.ancestry!.com--1870 United States Federal Census

Estimated Birth Year: abt 1810

Birthplace: Virginia

Race: Black
Gender: Female
Post Office: Columbia
Household Members: Name --Age (*=relationship not given)
John H Dowdy --37 (White; b!. 1833; Farmer)
Margret Dowdy-- 23 (Black; b!. 1847)
William Dowdy --6 (Black; b!. 1864)
Ema Dowdy-- 4 (Black; b!. 1866)
Elizabeth Dowdy --2 (Black; b!. 1868)
Margaret Clark --60 (Black ; b!. 1810 )
Rachael Dowdy-- 9 (Black; b!. 1861)
Peter Davis-- 35 (Black; b!. 1835)*
Eliza Davis-- 24 (Black; b!. 1846)*
Alexander Davis-- 4 (Black; b!. 1866)*
Peter Davis --1 (Black; b!. 1869)*
Thomas Williams-- 8 (Black; b!. 1862)*

I can't find her past this entry!. Could not figure out the relationship to her of the Davis family or of Thomas Williams!. I DID see a Margaret Clark listed on familysearch!.org for the 1880 census, but none of the names matched and it said she was white!. Was this John Dowdy (son-in-law) white, like it shows above!?!? Can't seem to find him either, other than this, that fit the time-frame or names!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
