Subject: [GREENSLIT] A. Greenslit in WI 1860 born VT 1841

I have this mystery person:

1860 census - Greenfield, Sauk Co., Wisconsin. In the household of N. Dennison 36 farmer b. MA.
"A. Greenslit (female) 19 born in VT. Domestic"

The only Greenslit living in Sauk Co., WI, in 1860 is Henry Greenslit. As far as I know, this 19-year old female born in Vermont does not belong to Henry. Henry was in Ohio by 1841.

Could she be Adeline Greenslit, daughter of John R. Greenslit and Serepta Shaw? Only problem is, Adeline was born in Ohio, not Vermont. Of course, the census taker could have been wrong about Vermont.

If not Adeline, who? It seems to me she has to belong to the Greenslit branch with roots in Vermont (my line).
But I can't place her in any of my Greenslit families.
