Polly Allen

(1837 - )



In 1860, Polly Kendall, age 23, is living with her parents. Would appear to be this daughter, perhaps widowed. She had two children, Laura A. age 3 and Harvey A. age 1.

Note: The next family is Kendall - did the enumerator misunderstand Polly's name? Or was she first married to a Kendall and then George Tindall and she gave the wrong name in 1870? I have not found a marriage record.
