Patricia:
Thank you so much, that is very interesting. The "Hariet" is Harriet Chaffee, his next wife. The dates match up, although I had no idea they were involved with each other so young. They eventually had 6 children and were married until Harriet died. I don't have a date of marriage to Harriet - would the census entry indicate that they were married by 1870?
The interesting open question (besides Cordelia's maiden name) is whether or not Hiram was involved with Harriet before or after the divorce in 1869. I assume that even in 1869 having your husband shack up with a fifteen year old was probably grounds for divorce.
