Hello , Delia is from Cordelia. She was one of one , no sisters named Cornelia. That's all I have at this time. B. Cook"
The rejection stated: "do not represent the same person because: Wonder If a wrong number was put in . They appear to be sister's ? Not the same person ."
I don't understand. A wrong number for what? Their birth dates? Then why weren't they listed together on the same census with the rest of the family? Why would one twin/sister be listed in 1870 as being born in 1863, then the other twin/sister listed in the 1880 census as also being born in 1863. Since the ages in the two census' match, then why not both together? Did one die one year, the the other died the next? (sorry, that's absurd).
The 1870 census lists "Cornelia A" (with an 'n') age 7 (b. 1863) in the home of "Barna" and Martha, along with siblings, John R 18, William B 15, Lorinda B 12, Emily A 10, George T S, 5
The 1880 census lists "Cordelia" (with a 'd', but no middle initial) age 17 (b. 1863) in the home of "Barna" and Silvia (step-mom), along with siblings, George T S 15, and Elvira 9.
Delia's death certificate (which also says she was born in 1863) says her middle name is Ann. (which correlates with the 1870 census). Or do we have triplets now?
Is there any other evidence that these two different profiles are actually sisters rather than the same person?
There are a number of Cornelia/Cordelia profiles in the Bandy family. Barney's brother Silas has two daughters, one named Cornelia (with an 'n') and one named Cordelia (with a 'd') who were born two years apart, and about 10+ years after Barney's daughter Delia Ann.
Cornelia is also the name of Barney and Silas' sister, as well as the name of their grandmother.
I have 8 children for Barney (so far, that I've been able to determine), but only one named Cor[n/d]elia. And based on the death certificate, I'm going with Cordelia, and betting the 1870 census taker misheard and misspelled the name.
What do you think? Please let me know.
The 1870 census lists "Cornelia A" age 7 in the home of "Barna" and Martha, along with siblings, John R 18, William B 15, Lorinda B 12, Emily A 10, George T S, 5
The 1880 census lists "Cordelia" age 17 in the home of "Barna" and Silvia (step-mom), along with siblings, George T S 15, and Elvira 9.
Since the ages match, they must be the same person. Otherwise, why would one twin/sister be listed in 1870 and the other twin/sister in 1880.
Do you have any other evidence that they are two different sisters?
Not to be confused with her aunt Cornelia A, Barney's sister. Or her two cousins, Cordelia and Cornelia (two years apart, 1880 census) by her uncle Silas. Nor her great grandmother Cornelia.
