4.  1870 Census Images (online at Ancestry.com; Image #10 of 18):  Huntingdon P.O., Henderson Twp., Huntingdon Co., PA, p. 612B, PN 10, 65/70, enumerated 18 Aug 1870, official enumeration date 1 Jun 1870 (extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen):

_____ Taylor 20 M W Working on farm     Do
_____ Susan 27 F W At home     Do
_____ Miranda M?  2 F W       Do
Corbin Lydia 98 F W Living w family     Do
Lydia is Sarah's mother.  Taylor and Susan were not in previous censuses with our subjects, so cannot be their children.  Secondary sources show Miranda as Henry & Sarah's child, but Sarah is too old to be her mother.  Miranda's mother is probably Susan, who is probably a widow.
