TABOR -
I am looking for info on Henry H. Tabor and/or wife Mary. The 1880 census shows them in
Mercer Co. in Rock(?). I think Henry may have died before 1900; the 1900 census shows Mary
Tabor with children Eunice and Hutton(?), no mention of Henry. Their son Charles E.
Tabor was my greatgrandfather.
