<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Figtree3, post: 4487813, member: 33&quot;]The surname is hard to discern in the 1880 U.S. census. The indexers in Ancestry interpreted the first letter as an L, so surname Line. But it is very unclear. In 1880 he was aged 25, and widowed, living alone in Rochester, occupation &quot;pattern maker.&quot; He was born in the state of New York and his parents were both born in Ireland, according to the census.</p><p><br /></p><p>By the way, after enlarging your image of the document I interpret his discharge year to be 1880, the document is also dated 1884, below after it says &quot;Special Orders.&quot;[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
