Saturday Night Genealogy Fun - Where Were Your Ancestors in 1900?

Your mission, should you decide to accept it (cue the Mission Impossible! music) is to:

1)  Where were your ancestors in the year 1900?  Make a list with their ages and location (with the street  address if you know it).

2)  Share your information in your own blog post, in a comment on this post, or on Facebook or Google+.  Please leave a link to your post in a comment to this post.

I used the 1900 census to determine where my ancestors were living.  I have a total of twenty-four (24) ancestors who were alive in 1900. Two of them were very young. I had a couple who had died just before 1900 as well.
