Leonard Strauss1870's Seneca Co., NY
Looking for further information on the Leaonard Strauss age 29 & family listed in the Waterloo, Seneca Co., New York census of 1880.He is listed with wife Julia age 19& daughter Jermie age 10 months on June 11th 1880.They live next to John Casterlin & wife Hellen Strauss Casterlin with their children Wirt, Nellie, & Hattie.I think Leonard & Hellen are brother & sister or cousins.Both John Casterlin & Leonard Strauss were telegraph operators.John was telegrap operator in 1870, so I think he might have gotten Leonard his job.
