Philip DENNIS
Elizabeth HORN

Husband: Philip DENNIS
Birth: 10 Aug 1780, Washington Co., PA
Death: 15 Aug 1835, Knox Co., OH
Disposition: Bladensburg Cemetery, Jackson Twp., Knox Co., OH
Father: Michael DENNIS
Mother: Rosanna WOLF

Marriage:

Wife: Elizabeth HORN
Birth: 18 Aug 1785, Washington Co., PA
Death: 26 Jan 1849
Father: Hardtman HORN
Mother: Elizabeth HOUGH

Children:

1. (Son A) DENNIS, b. 1800-1810
2. (Daughter A) DENNIS, b. 1800-1810
3. (Daughter B) DENNIS, b. 1810
4. Isaac DENNIS, b. 1811/2, Washington Co., PA
5. (Daughter C) DENNIS, b. 1815-20
6. (Son B) DENNIS, b. 1815-20
7. (Son C) DENNIS, b. 1815-20
8. (Daughter D) DENNIS, b. 1820-25

A slightly different set of children can by hypothesized based on the census data. The above scenario works only if Daughter B was born in 1810.

Sources:

1. Census Index: U.S. Selected Counties, 1800 (Broderbund CD-312): not found.

2. Family Quest Archives: Pennsylvania Federal Census 1810: Washington, Wayne, and York Counties. Heritage Quest CD M252-53 (extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen):

1810 PA Washington Co. Finley Image #101 p. 110 (penciled) p. 100 (stamped) Philip Dennis 10100-20010-00

These data indicate:

No. & Sex Age Class Therefore Born Individuals Inferred

1 male 9 or under 1800-1810 = Son A

1 male 16-25 1784-1794 = Philip (b. 1780)

2 females 9 or under 1800-1810 = Daughter B (b. 1810)
= Daughter A

1 female 26-44 1765-1784 = Elizabeth (b. 1785)

Philip and Elizabeth are in each other's age class. I don't doubt that this is our couple, so it appears to be census-taker error.

3. An Index and Transcription of the 1820 Census of Knox Co., OH (extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen):

1820 OH Knox Co. Jackson Twp. p. 19A Philip Dennis 310010-11001-0100

These data indicate:

No. & Sex Age Class Therefore Born Individuals Inferred

3 males 9 or under 1810-1820 = Son C
= Son B
= Isaac (b. 1811/2)

1 male 10-15 1804-1810 = Son A

1 male 26-44 1775-1794 = Philip (b. 1780)

1 female 9 or under 1810-1820 = Daughter C

1 female 10-15 1804-1810 = Daughter B (b. 1810)

1 female 45 or over in or bef. 1775 = Elizabeth (b. 1785?)

1 number engaged in agriculture

Has Daughter A died? And here is Elizabeth, in a higher age class, again. Was she really born in 1785? Or is this more census-taker error?

4. Family Quest Archives: Ohio Federal Census 1830: Jackson, Jefferson, Knox, Lawrence, and Licking Counties. Heritage Quest CD M19-134: (extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen).

1830 OH Knox Co. Jackson p. 212A Dennis Philip 002 110 100 - 011 100 100

These data indicate:

No. & Sex Age Class Therefore Born Individuals Inferred

2 males 10-14 1815-1820 = Son C
= Son B

1 male 15-19 1810-1815 = Isaac (b. 1811/2)

1 male 20-29 1800-1810 = Son A

1 male 40-49 1780-1790 = Philip (b. 1780)

1 female 5-9 1820-1825 = Daughter D

1 female 10-14 1815-1820 = Daughter C

1 female 15-19 1810-1815 = Daughter B (b. 1810)

1 female 40-49 1780-1790 = Elizabeth (b. 1785)

5. Census Index: U.S. Selected Counties, 1840 (Broderbund CD-316): as expected, Philip was not found, but neither was Elizabeth. She must be either remarried or living with one of her children.
