Birth*circa 1878 Lizzie G. Rorer was born circa 1878 at PA.1 
 She was the daughter of George B. Rorer and Caroline H. Smith. 
(with Parents) Census 18808 June 1880 She appeared on the 1880 Federal Census of Bethlehem Township, Hunterdon, NJ, in the household of her parents, George and Caroline.1 
Compiler's Comment* Although the 1880 census gives Lizzie's age as 10, I believe this is incorrect. George is given as the child's father, and the couple were not married until 1876. Although Caroline could have been married before and given birth to this child, Caroline appears in the 1870 census as single and childless. Perhaps Lizzie was ten months old at the time of the census and the enumerator misunderstood.
