However, "Ella Veazie", b ~1850, was enumerated559 in 1870 in Boston, residing at the Young Ladies Christian Associatioin, a seamstress.
Ella appears in many city directories with various occupations. In Denver, 1885 and 1886, she is listed as a draughtslady for E P Brink. E P Brink was a successful architect firm at that time. Interestingly, Ella was enumerated twice in the 1900 census2722 for Seattle, Washington, at the same address (1115 1/2 First Ave): once in June, and a second time in September. In September, the enumeration was clearly for the Grand Pacific Hotel. In June, she was a "lodger" and a Harry C Watkins was listed as "Head" several lines above. In those records, her occupation was listed as "General Agent," and "Agent, Advertising." She is also listed as an advertising agent in the San Francisco City Directory, 1903-1904.
