This is all there is for this decade. Most likely she worked raising her family, worked the farm. Trying to make things better.
1880
Census1880 Census for Mary Jane Bacon Scott Hamm Salisbury NH |
Here, she is 43 years old (either she is fudging on her age by about 5 years, or her neighbors are guestimating). She still lives with husband Amos age 45. Daughter Mertie M. Ham is 7 years old. Mary's occupation is listed as Keeping House, but she would most likely have helped her husband out on the farm
Her other children are not on this census, we'll have to keep an eye out.
