1b. Family Quest Archives: Indiana Federal Census 1830: Fayette, Lawrence, Gibson, Sullivan, Boone, Vermillion, Hamilton, Rush, Martin, Madison, Allen, Pike, Decatur, St. Joseph, and Elkhart Counties. Heritage Quest CD M19-26 (extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen):

1830 IN Sullivan Co. p. 177A John A Booker 101 001 - 111 010

These data indicate:

No. & Sex Age Class Therefore Born Individuals Inferred

1 male 4 or under 1825-1830 = Levi

1 male 10-14 1815-1820 = Son A

1 male 30-39 1790-1800 = John (b. 1796)

1 female 4 or under 1825-1830 = Cassandra

1 female 5-9 1820-1825 = Daughter B

1 female 10-14 1815-1820 = Daughter A

1 female 20-29 1800-1810 = Elizabeth (b. 1802/3)

Elizabeth is very young to have had the older children, though it's not impossible, especially if she was fibbing about her age in the 1850 Census. Middle-aged women lied about their age more often than not, especially widows seeking to remarry.

2. Census Index: U.S. Selected Counties, 1840 (Broderbund CD-316): not in Sullivan Co., IN.

1840 Booker, John A. IN Knox Co. p. 85

This is probably our subject (Knox Co. is adjacent to Sullivan Co.).

3. 1850 Census Index/Microfilm (online at GenealogyLibrary.com): District 106, Curry Township, Sullivan Co., p. 268, 4/4, enumerated 5 Aug 1850 (extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen):

John Osborn 63 M Farmer 2500 Ky

Elizabeth 47 F Ky

Sarah 10 F Ind

Eliza Jane 6 F Ind

Isaac 17 M C.S. Ind

Thomas 24 M C.S. 800 Ind

Sarah and Eliza Jane are Elizabeth's children with her former husband. Isaac and Thomas must be John's children by an earlier marriage.
