Emeline Judith Taft (1833-1917): 1880 Census Record

This is a followup to this post.  I hadn't been able to find the record of Emeline Taft Washburn in the 1880 census.  However today while searching for something else concerning my 3rd great grandmother, I came across the record.

Here is a link to the record.

In 1880, she was living in Ogden, Utah with her son Wallace Taft Washburn (my 2nd great grandfather.)  The occupation listed is "Keeping House." The age listed in 1880 is 45.  She is also listed as a widow in the census record which only deepens this mystery.

The age listed for Wallace is 22 and his occupation is listed as laborer.

Emeline and Wallace are listed as living with a Lewis and Joanna Taft, both age 75.  These are probably her father and step-mother.  Lewis would be my 4th great grandfather

Warren And Emeline Washburn: Mystery

Looking at the timelines for Warren and Emeline, you may notice that they were together in the 1860 census but were separated in the 1870 census and thereafter.  Warren remarries before the 1880 census.  Emeline is listed as widowed in the 1900 and 1910 census.

So the mystery is what happened to cause the split?  This question I am still trying to figure out.

Warren Azro Washburn and Emeline Judith Taft: Marriage

When I was searching for the parents of Warren Washburn, I was hoping the marriage record would list the parents.  I was sent these two images from the Vermont State Archives; marriage records, one for the groom (above) and one for the bride (below).  The marriage date is March 2, 1857 and they were married in Woodstock, Vermont.  Warren's occupation is listed as machanic.  The were married by a Rev. Moses Kidder.  The parent's names weren't listed however.  I found that out later.
