| Henry SLY
Ms. __?__ [Mary HIGGINS]? Susanna NEFF |
| WARNING: this family group sheet is incomplete and some of the evidence supporting it is circumstantial. Consider it hypothetical. |
| Husband: Henry SLY / SLYH / SLYGH / SLIGH
Birth: 1780-84 Death: 1840-50 Brother probably: Mathias SLYH If Henry is the brother of the Mathias SLYH — who also came from (W)VA and appears in the Franklin Co., OH, census for the first time in 1830 — they would obviously have the same parents, though those parents are in dispute. Basically, it's a question of whether Mathias is the son or grandson of Joh. Friedrich SCHLEICH. |
| Marriage-1: ca. 1800-1810 |
| Wife-1: Ms. __?__
Given Henry's age, he almost certainly had an earlier wife, just as Susanna had an earlier husband. If our subject is the Henry SLEIGH in the 1810 census of Jefferson Co., (W)VA, then he clearly did have an earlier wife — and children. |
| Marriage-2(?): 16 Aug 1821, Franklin Co., OH |
| Wife-2(?): Mary HIGGINS
Did our subject also marry Mary? Is "Daughter B" her child? |
| Marriage-2(3?): 6 Feb 1823, Franklin Co., OH |
| Wife-2(3?): Susanna "Susan" NEFF / NEF / NËF / NËFF
Birth: 1781/2, VA Death: aft. 1860 Other Spouse: m1. 1805, Hardy Co., (W)VA, Edward HOPPER Father: Jacob NEFF (1760-1849) Mother: Elizabeth JONES |
| Children with Wife-1: |
| 1. (Son A) SLY, b. 1800-1810
2. (Daughter A) SLY, b. 1800-1810 |
| Child with Wife-2 or Susan NEFF: |
| 3. (Daughter B) SLY, b. 1820-25 |
| Children with Susan NEFF — born in Prairie Twp., Franklin Co., OH: |
| 4. Henry
Clay SLY, b. 1823/4 {1850: 26, VA;

Having been widowed, Henry and his children may be living with other family members, possibly not even together. Mathias SLEIGH/SLYH is still in Jefferson Co., (W)VA. 4. 1830 Census Index and Digital Images (online at Ancestry.com; Image #7 of 8; extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen):
