Edward Thorp (b. 1827 in Ohio or Vermont) married Sarah Williams (b. 1838 in Ohio or Pennsylvania) and had four children: Capitola (b.1860), Flora (b.1858), Charles (b. 1852), and Rosa (b. 1868). They were in Avery Twp., Hancock Co., Iowa for the 1860 Census, but had moved to Mason City, Clear Lake Twp., Cerro Gordo Co., Iowa by the 1870 Census.
Sarah Williams'father, Abraham Williams (b. 1830 in Pennsylvania) lived next door to Edward Thorp in 1860. He followed Edward Thorp with his four children to Cerro Gordo Co. and settled in Mason City also in 1870.
Does anyone know about Edward Thorp's or Abraham William's ancestry?
