Robert - I was able to find a bit for you.
1900 LEWISTON, ANDROSCOGGIN, ME - 162 Bartlett
KILGORE
Freeman B. age 57, born Dec. 1842 married 9 years, born NE parents both born ME, cannot read his occupation
Ellen, wife, age 29, married 9 years, 4 children born 4 living, born Feb. 1871, Canada parents both born Canada, immigrated 1884
Freeman B. son age 8 born June 1891 ME
Prince A. son age 6 born Sept. 1893 ME
Gordan B. son age 3, born July 1896 ME
Ethel G. daughter, age 2, born Nov. 1897 ME
all these children show both parents born ME
1910 LEWISTON, ANDROSCOGGIN, ME - 184 Bartlett
KILGORE
Freeman, age 62, auctioneer, houses, married 18 years, second marriage, born ME parents both born ME
Ellen, wife, age 39, married 18 years, first marriage, 4 children born 4 living, born Canada both parents born Canada immigrated 1890
Freeman, son age 17 cutter shoe shop, born ME
Gordon, son age 12, born ME
Lewis, son age 9 born ME
all children show both parents born ME
** Prince is not with them and I could not find him in 1910 census under Prince or under Philip or under Albert so I don't know where he was
I don't know if you want the census records for Philip and his wife Florence but let me know and I can copy them for you. I see he was with her in 1930, but in 1920 she and kids were with her parents and he was elsewhere as a boarder
1880 LEWISTON, ANDROSCOGGIN, ME
KILGORE
Freeman, age 35, boarder, auctioneer, born ME
Lydia R. wife age 30, seamstress born ME
Cora, daughter age 16, born ME
all of them show both parents born ME
1870 LEWISTON, ANDROSCOGGIN, ME
KILGORE
Freeman, age 27, jobber born ME
Mary F. age 27, seamstress born looks like New Brunswick, but may mean Brunswick ,Maine ???
Cora, age 4, born ME
William E. age 5/12 born ME
** so it looks like Freeman was actually married 3 times not 2 as he says in 1910 census.
1860 LEWISTON, ANDROSCOGGIN, ME
KILGORE
Ezra C. age 53, Boarding, born ME
Sophronia, age 43 born ME
Ezra A. age 24, Fcty. operative, born ME
Emily age 24, born ME
Susan B. age 19, born ME
Freeman B. age 17 born ME
John P. age 13 born ME
Frank age 7 born ME
Rolla age 3 born ME (this is a male - thought you would want to know as name is odd)
looks like they were running a rather large boarding house
1850 BRIDGTON, CUMBERLAND, ME
KILGORE
Ezra C. age 44, rock cutter, ME
Sophrona age 33, born ME
Ezra F. age 14, born ME
Mary age 12, born ME
John age 13, born ME
Susan age 9 born ME
Freeman age 7 born ME
I am guessing from this that Emily and Mary are the same person but why she is shown same age as Ezra in one census and 2 years younger next is a bit of a mystery but then census records are always a little off. Also I double checked John P. in both 1850 and 1860 and he is shown as 13 in both which is off too.
1870 LEWISTON, ANDROSCOGGIN,ME
KILGORE
Ezra C. age 64, brick mason born ME
Sophronia age 54, house keeping, born ME
Frank age 17 brick mason born ME
1880 LEWISTON, ANDROSCOGGIN,ME - Pleasant Street
KILGORE
Ezra . age 74, farmer born ME parents both born ME
Sophronia age 64, born ME parents both born ME
I also found the following:
U.S. ARMY REGISTRATION 1798-1914
Truman B. Kilgore born Pennor, Maine
enlistment: Nov. 8, 1861, age 19
Enlistment place: Lewiston, Maine
Occupation:pressman
Blue eyes, brown hair, light complexion, 5'8"
17th infantry Maine, Union
Truman deserted Aug. 15, 1862 and was apprehended Aug. 18, 1862. He deserted again Sept. 20, 1862. It does not say what happened after that.
You could send for his Civil War papers. I have done so for two of my ancestors and the papers had a lot of family info included.
My g-g-grandfather was also listed as a deserter but the records showed he was found in a hospital in TN and reinstated with full standing. Somehow they had lost track of the fact he was sent to hospital.
There is a One World Tree for this family on ancestry.com but it has some errors for sure.
Some of what it has:
Freeman Blake Kilgore born Dec. 17, 1842 Penobscot, ME (I suppose the Pennor, ME from his army registration likely means Penobscot)
died Feb. 28, 1928 Auburn, Androscoggin, ME
married:
1) Mary F. born June 15, 1843 died Nov. 11, 1872
2) Lydia M. Jones born Feb. 11, 1847 died May 28, 1885
married: Dec, 7, 1873 Lisbon, Androscoggin, ME
children: Cora born 1874, Methyl gertrude born 1877 , John Freeman born 1880
*** Cora was in both 1870 and 1880 census and birth year would be more like 1864 than 1874, also there is a son William E. in 1870 and this tree does not mention him.
** the Methyl Gertrude mentioned is likely Ethel G. from 1900 census - age 2, daughter of Freeman and 3rd wife Ellen so born 1897 not 1877
3) Ellen Kelly born 1867 Ireland died 1949 Lewiston
children:
Freeman Blake 1893, Gordon @ 1895, Prince Alphonso Sept. 19, 1898, Otis 1903
*** we know that Prince was born 1893 according to 1900 census
*** there is a son Lewis in 1910 census - this may be Otis??
Ezra Carter Kilgore born Sept. 6, 1805 Lovell, Oxford, ME, died Nov. 18, 1874 Lewiston
** we know he was alive in 1880 census so could not have died 1874.
Sophronia Blake bor Nov. 3, 1816 died Feb. 15, 1888 Lewiston
married Sept. 27, 1832 Lovell, Oxford, ME
There is more going back to earlier generations as well. As you can see there were several names and dates in this tree that do not agree with census records but I have given you the info to look at and decide what you want to take from it. I know census records are not always right but for instance Cora would not be in 1870 census if she was not born until 1874.
I hope this is of some help to you.
Carolyn
