In 1850 she and her parents and three siblings lived in Pike Township, Knox County, OH. Her father worked as a carpenter.
In 1860 she and her parents and her three younger siblings lived on a farm in Sigourney Township, Keokuk County, IA. Her father owned real property worth $2700 and personal property valued at $1350. He also worked as a butcher.
In 1870 she and her husband and four children--his three from his first marriage plus their daughter--lived in Washington, IA. Alfred worked as a horse trader.
In 1880 she and Alfred and five children--his two youngest from his first marriage plus their three--lived in possibly the same house in Washington. Alfred worked raising horses, John as a laborer, and Alfred Jr as a clerk in a restaurant. Their daughter Mazie must have gotten missed by the census taker, because she surely lived there, too.
In 1900 she and her husband and their two youngest daughters lived in possibly the same house, which they were renting.
In 1910 she and her husband lived in a house they owned, mortgage free, at 707 South Iowa Avenue in Washington. He worked as a commercial traveler, selling nursery stock. Someone in the family may know if this was the same house they had lived in for many years.

My great-grandfather, Joseph P. Minteer, told me that the Minteer family was of French descent - that the name had been changed from Montour to Minteer by either older brothers or uncles, when they were attending school, so the name would be more “American”. He said that the Daymudes were from Virginia - that they claimed to be French, but he thought they were Dutch.
A sister of Julia Daymude married ______ Yearick and lived in Washington, Iowa. Alice Arastrong, a daughter. And the Swailes and House family, in Sigourney and Wapello, were also from that side of the family.
There was a bachelor brother named Up Minteer, who had lost a leg in the Civil War, and I think lived in Missouri - also another brother in Missouri, who had children - for my grandfather had cousins in Missouri, and in Illinois also.
There are Minteers in Pittsburgh and in Ohio - also Mintiers in Ohio.
My great-grandfather said the Minteers (Montours) came from Pennsylvania to Ohio.
The Minteers all seem to think that we come from the same ancestor.
None seem to trace the family earlier than 1790. I think the family is descended from the French-Indian, Andrew (Henry) Montour of Pennsylvania.
