- Lizzy was still with her parents in the 1891 census. She eventually l ived in Fall River, Ma. In the 1891 census, she was 26 years old. Dad k new her husband as Uncle Will, so could he be the one that picked up Ja mes in Boston when he came over? We think that Lizzy died in Fall Riv er.

The following was discovered when Dad checked his old records....it is n ot what has been listed up until now. Here is the copy of his internet n ote to me.
Hi Glen-- Just a few words about Grampa James Stafford's sisters which y ou wonder about. I've been searching tonight to clear up all doubts. W e were trying to remember their proper names---not Edith & Clara--- but A nnie and Emily went to Canada. Annie was Mrs. Annie Ogden of Saint Ca therines, Canada ---- and Miss Emily Holt of Ontario, Canada. Now let m e type out Grandma's obituary.
Mrs. Clara Stafford, wife of James Stafford, 1 Burt Street, died this m orning at her home in her 74th year following an illness of six months. M rs. Stafford, who resided in Taunton for the past 43 years -- 1946 minu s 1903 she came= 43 years. was born in Oldham, England, the daughter o f the late John and Maria (Greenwood) Holt. She was a member of the St . Paul's Church in North Dighton, Ma. In addition to her husband, she l eaves one daughter, Mrs. Hilda Hayes, No. Dighton; 3 sons, Harry, Frank a nd Lawrence Stafford all of this city; and two sisters, Mrs. Annie ogde n of St. Catherines, Canada and Miss Emily Holt of Ontario, Canada. Th ese are not the sisters of James but of my grandmother, Clara. Gramp h ad three sisters older than he Lizzy (probably Elizabeth Stafford) 1865 , Edith
1870, Clara 1874. Where his sisters Edith and Clara went, or came to t his hemisphere U.S. or Canada, I don't know. Dear 'Ol Dad in Taunton.
