Hello,
I am searching for information on the CHARLES line. The only information I have at this time is that of Rosetta Jane Charles born 1869 in Iowa. She is living with an aunt and uncle on the 1880 census in Warren Township, Keobuk Co., Iowa. Her aunt and uncle are Washington and Mary MALIN, which of them is her real relative, I have no idea. There is a blank where her parents birthplaces would be listed.
Rosetta is married to James Henry Benson by the birth of their son Elza in 1889. This piece of informatin comes from the 1910 census in Whitehorse, Woods Co., Oklahoma. She is listed as a widow on this census and claims to have had 11 children of which only 8 are listed with her.
I have no further information on either Rosetta Charles Benson or James Henry Benson...no marriage record, nothing actually showing his name to be James Henry, but one of his sons birth certificates made late in that son's life.
The 1910 census indicates that the father of all 8 children was born in Wisconsin.
Any information on the Charles line would be most welcome.
Thank you,
Pat Spearman
