Abigail Arnsbarger..Wife..Jan 1829..71..NY..2/1
(Living with husband and what appears to be an adopted daughter.)
NOTE - The handwriting describing Sallie's relationship is small and difficult to read but it appears to say "Adopted Daughter". Even her given name may be spelled as "Saelie" or "Sadlie". Note that a daughter named Sarah or Sally appeared on the 1870 census and she was not listed as adopted at that time but her birth year was about 1855 instead of the 1888 given on the 1900 Census. The fact that Abigail indicated that 1 of her children had died by this time indicates that it was the daughter, Sarah/Sally, who had died. Therefore, this "adopted daughter" on the 1900 census was most likely not the same person as her biological daughter, Sarah/Sally. Many indexes to this 1900 census will show their surname as "Arnsbarg" because the ending "er" is very faint and easily missed.
