@NI618@ NOTEIn the 1850 census, they had a 21 year old woman living with them named Arletta Lewis who was born in New Jersey. Since she was born several years before their marriage, her relationship to Thomas and Margaret is uncertain. Could she be the wife of Cornelius?
In the 1860 census, his property is valued at $50,000 (quite a sum for the time).
