Oh my, didn't think about double meanings of that subject until I started to type this answer. 

First of all Verdena that is sort of the central question; Did Mary from 1870 become William from 1880? Or is William age 4 in the next household up the page actually my William Acusta, Acosta Accuster who was central to my posting the original query?

Unless I get real lucky and stumble across the answer somewhere, at this point it appears that Mary may have died young as I have yet to locate a marriage record for her in Douglas County. Of course it is entirely possible she was swept off her feet by some guy who took her to another county to wed, especially since the rest of the family are in Wolf Creek in 1880 which is actually closer to Jacksonville than Roseburg.

Thanks to the helpful folks on this wonderful list, Amen to that Barbara, I now know that William from 1880 is indeed the William married to [Lu]Cinda Rondeau in 1882 which was where I was trying to get to all along. And again thanks to the folks on this list I have even determined that when Cinda married William she was sort of keeping it in the family because her Mother-in-law is the sister-in-law to a half uncle.

Can't wait to show that one to my niece.

Am I missing something, since I know nothing of these people, but what happened to Mary?
Merry Christmas and a Happy 2014!
