Thomas HOSKINS
Mary __?__

WARNING: My attaching Elijah as a son to this couple is based on circumstantial evidence. Thomas (Jr.) leaves Stillwater for Washington Co., NY, then settles lastly in Lansing, MI. Elisha is first found in Orleans Co., NY, then settles permanently in Monroe Co., NY. Where the families come together is that we find an orphaned grandson of Thomas (Jr.) living with a son of Elijah in the 1880 census of Lansing, MI. There is surely some kind of connection between the families; and, given their ages and birthplaces, the simplest and most logical one is that Thomas (Jr.) and Elijah are brothers. Further evidence is definitely needed, however.

Husband: Thomas HOSKINS
Birth: bef. 1775, outside U.S.

In the 1870 census, Thomas (Jr.), indicates his father is foreign born, but his mother is not.

1 male 45 or over in or bef. 1775 = Thomas Sr.

1 female 9 or under 1810-1820 = Daughter E

1 female 10-15 1804-1810 = Daughter D

3 females 16-25 1794-1804 = Daughter C

*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.
