It’s always fascinating to learn how people met. I was looking at the 1870 Census and noticed that Deborah Burr (1826-1919) lived five houses away from cattle farmer and CT state representative Aaron Treadwell (1828-1896) in Redding CT. Deborah Burr was the sister of Julia Burr (1821-1907), George Henry Gould’s mother. No wonder that George Henry Gould (1849-1940) met Aaron Treadwell’s daughter, Lina Treadwell. They married 7 October 1873 and had seven children.
