Hello,

In 1910 there was a family living in Illinois with the following people:
John Portee, Head
Harriet Portee, Wife
Elizabeth Portee, Daughter
Mack Portee, Son
Harley Portee, Son
Anna Portee, Daughter in law
Adla Portee (Could that be Alda instead?, Grand daughter

The census indicates that Harriet had given birth to 12 children, and 8 were still living, and since only 3 children were listed on this particular census, then possibly others were older and living within their own household.

All were born in Illinois and by profession John was a miner.

Is this possibly your family?
