Biography
- MARRIAGE:
- Dodd, Jordan. Kentucky Marriages, 1802-1850
- Spouse 1: Blair, Betsy
- Spouse 2: Houchin, Charles
- Marriage Date: 7 Nov 1810
- Marriage Location: Kentucky, Warren County
- BETSY'S BIRTH:
- Birth between 1770-1797 (average 1784):
- If married in 1810, then Betsy had to be at least 13,
- so the latest she could be born is 1797.
- Her children are known to have been born in 1812 and 1813,
- and assuming she was no older than 42 at their birth,
- then she was born no earlier than 1770.
- BETSY'S DEATH:
- Death between 1813-1850.
- If last child was born 1813, then Betsy died after 1813.
- Betsy is not on any 1850 census, so she must have died before 1850.
- PLACE OF DEATH: Kentucky
- Both of their children were married in Edmonson County Kentucky in the 1830's.
- Both of their children are living in Warren County Kentucky on 1850 census.
- Therefore it is a fair assumption that both Charles and Betsy died in Kentucky.
- HUSBAND'S BIRTH:
- Birth between 1759-1770:
- The birth range for both his parents is 1746-1764,
- and parents had to be at least 13 yrs old at Charles' birth,
- so Charles was born no earlier than 1759.
- It says "Charles Houchin was a Revolutionary War Soldier".
- The American Revolutionary War was 1775-1783,
- so the latest Charles could be born is 1770.
- That would make him 13 years old on the last year of war,
- which is a stretch… probably born before 1765.
- HUSBAND'S DEATH:
- Death after 1837-1850:
- Charles is mentioned in his father Will on December 1837.
- This implies Charles died after 1837.
- In addition the book says Charles applied for pension "as late as 1836".
- Charles is not on any 1850 census, so she must have died before 1850.
