Thomas Horton can be found in the 1840 census of Buchanan County, MO. There is an adult male, adult female, one young male and one young female in the enumeration. This fits with Thomas and Phoebe's family at the time. The adult male in this record is 30-40 years of age; so year of birth is 1800-1810, or so. From later census records it looks like first child Henry was born in Ohio, then the next two (Sarah and William) were born in Missouri. Census records show that the youngest Hannah was born in Missouri also, but her death certificate and obit indicates she was born in Ohio. If she was born in Missouri, maybe Thomas died in Missouri and Phoebe took her young family back to Ohio, where her parents were. ~~ Mae Newton Bruce, Sept. 23, 2022 ~~
Thomas married Phoebe Craig on Oct. 12, 1834, in Jackson County, Ohio. [1]
