The term "spinster" in the 1860's could either mean a woman who was not married, or a person who spins as an occupation. Since there were several women listed as "spinster" on the same census page, I would assume the enumerator considered it an occupation, and Elizabeth was indeed Richmon's wife. Sandra |
