George ? *Note that this Harriet is not the same as the Harriet b. 1864, sister of Emma although they lived in the same home at the time of the 1880 Census. The older Harriet b. 1864 is listed as "sister" refering to the household head, Wm. H. Boardingham, Sr. Therefore Harriet (the older) was living with her brother and sister-in-law perhaps because her parents were dead or to help with the children. Also, George does not appear on the 1880 Census although he is listed as a brother in the 1908 obit of Wm. H. Boardingham, Jr. ******** Source: US 1800 Census for Scarsdale, Westchester Co., NY Household: Name Marital Status Gender Age Birthplace Occupation William H.
