Must have moved between 1871 and Willie's birth since he and the other young ones are born Missouri.

Can't be him then can it?


Odd to see that the Alfred+Emm+family is recordeed twice on familysearch:

Alfred 35 upholster
Emma 33 keeping house
Polly 14
Nellie 10
etc.

Alfred 34 apolsterer
Emma 31
Polley 12
Nellie 9

The former has the younger kids born in England, the latter has them in USA.

It looks like Henry Insull married Emma Miles in 1869 and her brother Alfred Miles married Emma Insull (Henry's sister) in 1866

Having said that I have found a Henry Insull in 1871 with new wife Amy -- I suppose they might have had to say the names differently to know who was who!
