In 1850 NY census Cornelia Palon is enumerated in August 1850 and the Green County Wisconsin census Orthera Palon is enumerated in October 1850. I know that the Orthera Palon in 1850 Wisconsin is my Cornelia Palon because of a newspaper article by Ruth Scoville her sister.
Exhibit 1.
From the Janesville Gazette, Janesville, Wisconsin May 6, 1893.
Ruth Scoville Palmer.
In my research I found a James Palon written in the corner of the
Bible page of my grandmother Nancy Theo Ames which said James Palon died on 24
August 1887. ***Entry did not say where James Palon died.
Also found a James Palon
in the 1850 census for Oswego, NY Federal Census and the 1860, and 1870 and 1880 Chicago Illinois census. In the 1850 and 1860 Chicago, Cook, IL Federal Census there is an Amelia Palon and Cornelia Palon.
Am not sure if this is the
James Palon in my grandmother’s Bible.
I also received a
document in the mail which is not sourced so will have to review this. (Exhibit 4)
Sure looks like Altheah
FINN Scoville may have been Cornelia Palon’s mother.Then who would Susan Palon
be? Would Althea be divorced from James Palon?
Who was Mary Scoville in 1850 Wisconsin living with George
Scoville? Was Mary Scoville Althea’s
sister? Don’t think so because the census says Mary Scoville was born Kentucky.
I have not found the marriage records for George Scoville. This would be
wonderful as It might clear some of this up or only add confusion.
This 1850
NY Oswego County US census was enumer ated on 18 August 1850 in Osweo NY

Exhibit 2: The 1850 Wisconsin Green county US Federal Census with Orthera Palon.
Could my Cornelia be this Amelia Palon?
In my research I found a James Palon written in the corner of the
Bible page of my grandmother Nancy Theo Ames which said James Palon died on 24
August 1887. ***Entry did not say where James Palon died.
Also found a James Palon
in the 1860 census for Chicago and 1870 and 1880 Chicago Illinois census.
Exhibit 3
Am not sure if this is the
James Palon in my grandmother’s Bible.
I also received a
document in the mail which is not sourced so will have to review this.
(Exhibit 4) In this document it states Cornelia's name is Cornelia Aeilia Palon and the mother is Althea FINN/FLYNN married to a NN(no name) PALON. On Cornelia's death certificate it faintly says "Mother's maiden name FINN". I am in the process of contacting the party who sent me the exhibit 4 above to obtain his source.
Cornelia Palon Ames Death certificate.
Sure looks like Altheah
FINN Scoville may have been Cornelia Palon’s mother.Then who would Susan Palon
be? Would Althea be divorced from James Palon? Would James Palon be the brother-in-law of NN Palon who Althea was married to? Who was Mary Scoville in 1850 Wisconsin living with George
Scoville? Was Mary Scoville Althea’s
sister?
Don’t think so because the census says Mary Scoville was born Kentucky.
I have not found the marriage records for George Scoville. This would be
wonderful as It might clear some of this up or only add confusion.
FUTHER RESEARCH:
1. George Scoville marriages (Possibly married three times)
2. Birth or Church records for Althea FINN
3. Marriage records for Cornelia Palon Ames
4. More information on James Palon and his children and wife. Possibly may find on a query or in Newberry Library in Chicago.
5. Find out who Mary J Scoville is in 1850 census Green County Wisconsin US Federal Census.
