2. 1820 Census Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com): there is a Charles HARVEY (200010-10010-0-100) living in Blooming Grove Twp., Franklin Co., IN (p. 217A).

3. 1830 Census Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com): there is a Charles HERVEY (2011001-121011) living in Franklin Co., IN, (p. 289, Ln. 20).

4. 1840 Census Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com, Image #25 of 42; extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen): neither Squire nor Charles found, and I did a page-by-page check of Franklin County.

1840 IN Franklin Co. Roll 80 pp. 266A-266B Ln. 22 Hartson Harvey 000 010 - 000 010 0101000

These data indicate:

No. & Sex Age Class Therefore Born Individuals Inferred

1 male 20-29 1810-1820 = Harston

1 female 20-29 1810-1820 = Wife

1 person employed in agriculture

Hartson is the only HARVEY/HARVY/etc. in the county, and he is clearly a newly married man, so is this our subject? Was his given name really Hartson, and Squire just a title he adopted (given his affluence)? Or is Hartson another person and Charles and Squire are both missing from the 1840 census?

5. 1850 Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com, Image #8 of 26 — indexed): Butler Twp., Franklin Co., IN, Roll M432_146, p. 254B, 55/55, enumerated 23 Nov 1850, official enumeration date 1 Jun 1850 (extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen):

Jane      " 26 F "

Sarah     " 10 F "

Joseph    " 7 M "

Ann       " 5 F "

Prudence " 5/12 F "

Jane is fibbing about her age. Back then, "Ia." was the abbreviation for Indiana. Charles HERVEY (æ 62, b. SC) and wife Susan (æ 58, b. VA) are living in Blooming Grove Twp., Franklin Co., IN (p. 168A).

6. 1860 Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com, Image #10 of 35): Oak Forest P.O., Butler Twp., Franklin Co., IN, Roll M653_259, p. 60, PN 60, 499/386, enumerated 14 Jun 1860, official enumeration date 1 Jun 1860 (extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen):

Mary Runebaum 73 F Oldenburgh

Magdalena Siefert? 44 F France

Just on the face of it, I would have taken Mary RUNEBAUM to be Jane's mother. So, is the mistake here that Jane is one mis-identified, not Myra? Charles HARVEY (æ 72, b. VA) and wife, Susan (æ 64, b. VA), are living in Bloominggrove Twp., Franklin Co., IN (p. 141).

7. 1870 Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com, Image #20 of 39): Haymond P.O., Butler Twp., Franklin Co., IN, Roll M593_315, p. 307B, PN 20, 144/127, enumerated 28 Jul 1870, official enumeration date 1 Jun 1870 (extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen):

Widow Susan HARVEY (æ 87, b. VA) is living in Blooming Grove Twp., Franklin Co., IN (p. 243B), with one of her married sons.

8. 1880 Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com, Image #15 of 30): Butler Twp., Franklin Co., IN, Roll T9_278, p. 293A, PN 15, SD 2, ED 34, enumerated __ Jun 1880, official enumeration date 1 Jun 1880 (extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen):
