These data indicate:

No. & Sex Age Class Therefore Born Individuals Inferred

1 male 4 or under 1835-1840 = David (b. 1835/6)

2 males 5-9 1830-1835 = George (b. 1833/4)
= John (b. 1831/2)

1 male 20-29 1810-1820 = Nicholas (b. 1806/7)

2 females 4 or under 1835-1840 = Mary J. (b. 1839/40)
= Elizabeth (b. 1836/7)

1 female 20-29 1810-1820 = Cynthia (b. 1810)

1 person engaged in agriculture

Nicholas is in the wrong age class, yet surely these are our subjects. They are listed next to William MAXWELL, who is in the 1810-20 age class, so he could be Cynthia's brother.

"Daniel" is definitely Daniel, yet he is "David" in the 1860 and 1870 censuses, where he is b. KY. "Ia" was then the abbreviation for Indiana. Living next door to Nicholas's parents, John & Mary STROUBE.

Unless they just popped across the river for the 1850 census, at least some of the children had to have been born in Kentucky. Also, John is apparently widowed and Sarah is his daughter, which explains why she is out of order on the list.

If Sarah is our subject's granddaughter — because again, she is place last on the list, out of chronological order — then she was enumerated twice, once here and once with her father, John STROUBE.
