This image is not Alexander Squire Fletcher, but is Alexander Mackenzie, 2nd Prime Minister of Canada. The original image received had poor text overlaid on the image, indicating it was a photo of Alexander Squire Fletcher and Doug Couch, the site owner at adkinshorton.net (and genealogy.adkinshorton.net) made this enhanced version with border framing and nicer text of his name...which unfortunately is not the correct person's name. Various versions of this enhanced image are extant on the Internet. Clicking on the adjacent thumbnail image now leads to a PDF giving some additional disambiguation regarding this image.

Note: Although the names indicate this is the correct census for David's & Sylvia's family, the children's ages are way off. If it were just a couple of them, it would seem likely that those were actually grandchildren of the same names. However, since it appears to be all or almost all of them, it seems the enumerator was using the wrong age indicator columns. As recently as the 1880 federal census, only two of their children were at home. I do not know why the state census of 1885 (this census) shows all their children together, since it is clear some of them would not have been separate households. Additionally, there are some new names of children very young; which does sound like grandchildren, but there is no indication of relationships to guide. Some such censuses gather all people of the same surname and lists them together. However, these two census pages show two groupings of the Scull family and two groupings of the English family; which would seem to indicate separate families.

Note: This census document shows a William Campbell in New York who is age-compatible with a William D. Campbell "said to be" the father of William Stewart Campbell. Current research does not given enough information to confirm that this is the correct William Campbell (William D.) or that such a parental relationship existed.

That the information in this 1958 city directory refers to Patricia Campbell is supported by two facts:

1. Patricia's father who was documented as living in New Jersey as late as 1950 (City Directory for Atlantic City), not far from his mother, Lucretia Fredrick Hutchinson Campbell...passed away in Florida (where undoubtedly he and Patricia had family nearby).
2. Patricia was a Hendrickson in 1958 according to Social Security information.

Patricia was 24 years old in 1958. It appears she chose to keep her maiden name after that time until married later to Billy Walling. Further documentation regarding Patricia as Hendrickson may be available from Volusia County's Hall of Records in Florida.
