9. (Son B) ELY, b. ca. 1817; living in 1830 — is he Benjamin ELY, b. 1817/8, PA; m. 1841, Pickaway Co., OH?
10. Isaac ELY, b. 4 Nov 1819; d. 17 Aug 1846
11. Maria Catarina ELY, b. 5 Feb 1823; d. 25 Sep 1823

. Rebecca ELY?

The children are said to have been born in Reading, Berks Co., PA, but I find no John ELY in the census of Berks Co., PA, before 1840. In any case, those born after 1810 were certainly born in Ohio, which argues against Benjamin being their son.

No. & Sex Age Class Therefore Born Individuals Inferred

3 males 9 or under 1810-1820 = Isaac (b. 1819)
= Son B
= Daniel (b. 1813)

1 male 10-15 1804-1810 = Son A

1 male 19-25* 1794-1801 = Henry (b. 1800)

1 male 45 or over in or bef. 1775 = John

2 females 10-15 1804-1810 = Sarah (b. 1808)
= Margaret (b. 1803)

1 female 26-44 1775-1794 = Catharine (b. 1782)

2 person engaged in manufacture

*In the 1820 Census, the third column is age class 16-18 and the fourth column is age class 16-25, which means any individual in column three is duplicated in column four. So, for an accurate representation of the household, the number in column three should be subtracted from the number in column four. If, after the subtraction, any individuals remain in column four, then they have to be age 19-25, thus creating a "new," more precise age class.

Listed next to Catharine's brother, Daniel DRESBACH, who is next to a Samuel WATT.
