In the 1830 census Joseph is located in Rome, Maine, apparently married and with four children, the eldest being two daughters aged 5-9.2 In 1850 Joseph was found still in Rome, with a wife Joanna and six children ranging in age from 6 to 20. He was a 48-year-old farmer with land worth $1100.3 In 1860 Joseph and Joanna were still listed as living in Rome, Maine, but there were no children with them. Joseph was a farmer with $500 with of real estate and $250 worth of personal property. It said they were both born in Massachusetts rather than Maine, as in the previous census.4 Neither was located in the 1870 census indexes for Maine at HeritageQuest.

Birth*Ira Rankins was born on 7 November 1803, probably in Lebanon, York County, MaineG. The family moved from Lebanon to Rome, Maine between the birth of Joseph in April 1801 and the birth of Lucius in July 1806. Smithfield records, which give the date of birth for Ira, do not say where he was born. But as the family were members of the church in Lebanon until January 1806, it seems likely that Ira was born in Lebanon.1,2 
Death*Ira died on 17 November 1806 in Rome, Kennebec County, MaineG.3

Birth*Lucius Rankins was born on 12 July 1806 in Rome, Kennebec County, MaineG.1 
Marriage*He married Sarah H. (?) by about 1825. In the 1830 census there were three males under the age of 5 living with them. 
Death*Lucius died possibly before 1880. The last census he is found in is 1870. 
When the 1830 census was taken Lucius was found in Waterville, Maine, apparently married and with three sons under the age of 5.2
     In the 1850 census Lucius is living in Augusta, Maine with a wife Sarah and three children ranging in age from 10 to 20. He was listed as a 43-year-old "millman" with property worth $400. It said he was born in New Hampshire, which may be in error.3 In 1860 Lucius and Sarah H. Rankins and four other relatives were living in Belgrade, Maine, employed as a laborer, owning real estate worth only $130 and personal property worth $100. This time it says he was born in Maine.4 In the 1870 census, Lucius was living in Mount Vernon, Maine only with one other person, presumably a daughter, and his wife was no longer there, possibly because she died (although she may appear in the next census). He was employed as a worker in a saw mill. It does not list any value of real or personal property. By 1880 he may have been deceased because there is a 79-year-old widow Sarah H. Rankin living in the home of a niece in West Waterville, Maine.5 If this was here it leaves open the question as to where she was in the 1870 census. She doesn't appear in the HeritageQuest indexes for that year.

Last Edited15 Feb 2009
Birth*Edna Mae Gilliland was born about 1860/61 in MissouriG. This is based on the 1870 and 18801 censuses. Living with Edna and Noble Wallingford in 1880 was 13-year-old Eva Gilliland, listed as Noble's sister-in-law. This is the only evidence thus far to Edna's maiden name, but it could be something other than Gilliland. The 1870 census shows a 9-year-old Edney M. Gilliland in the family of John R. and Martha A. Gilliland of Napa, California, who are surely the correct family. In 1870 John and Martha were said to have been born in Missouri, but in 1880 Edna and Eva's father and mother were said to have been born in Kentucky and Virginia, respectively. There is no daughter Eva listed in the 1870 census, despite the fact that she should be there, aged about 4. There is a Stella C., age 4, and a Mina G., age 2, as well as a Annie E. age 14, but no other daughters. The family appears to have moved from Missouri to California between 1904 and 1907. The 1860 census2 found them in the township of Millwood, Missouri, which may be where Edna was born. 
Marriage*She married Noble John Wallingford, son of John Noble Wallingford and Arabelle J. DeGroot, about 1877/78. The 1910 census states that they had been married for 32 years. 
Death*Edna died on 22 July 1934 in Seattle, King County, WashingtonG. The notice in the paper reads: "Seattle, July 23 -- Mrs. Edna Mae Wallingford died yesterday at her home here. She was the widow of John Noble Wallingford, pioneer real estate man, after whom the Wallingford district was named." Apparently her husband went by both John Noble and Noble John Wallingford. The latter is on his death record.3,4

The census was taken on June 9th, so if born in June the age wouldn't be 4/12. It must read "Jan" but looks more like 'June'.
