Biography

Ervin Maupin is the descendant of a Huguenot emigrant.

Ervin was born in 1828. He is the son of Thomas Maupin and Anna (Miller) Maupin.

He married Margaret Ann Rice on 19 Dec 1850 in Franklin County, Missouri.^[1] The marriage was performed by Rev. Benjamin Leach, who was the father of his niece's husband.
They had the following children:

1. Nancy Maupin (1853-1903)
2. William H. Maupin (1856-1903)
3. Ora Jane Maupin (1865-1941)
4. Mary A. Maupin
5. Thomas Maupin

The 1850 Census is interesting, in that it shows him as the oldest in a grouping of his younger brothers and sisters.^[2] But his mother and father, who are both still living, are enumerated as a separate household with older sister Nancy.^[3]

The 1860 Census^[4] shows him at age 33 with his wife and two children in "United States Census, 1860", database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MHZ1-L7G : 18 February 2021), Ervin Maupin in entry for James Hollinsworth, 1860.

The 1870 Census^[5] shows him at age 44 with his wife and three children in Canaan Township, Gasconade County, Missouri.

The 1880 Census^[6] shows him at age 53 with his wife and three children in Canaan Township, Gasconade County, Missouri.

He died in 1889, intestate (without a will), so on 29 Jul 1889, his son, William H. Maupin was appointed by the court as the administrator of his estate.^[7]

Research Notes

His name is seen with multiple spellings: Ervin, Irvin, Irwin. However, Ervin was the spelling used in the probate court records for his estate.^[7]

The two children Mary & Thomas are not found on any census, but are listed in the book, The Story of Gabriel and Marie Maupin ^[8]
