She is listed as Acelia E. in book: And she held forth her hand : history......

The 1900 Census indicates she had 3 children but only 2 were living.

Celia indicated in the 1910 Census, that she had given birth to 2 children and both were living. The 1880 Census listed 3 children living with George & Celia. I have seen, in other Census records, where several women didn't want to acknowledge or discuss this painful information with a Census taker.
They had been married for 39 years.
