Notes

The 1830 census shows Benjamin with 2 boys ages 0-5, 1 boy 5-10, 1 girl 10-15, and a wife 30-40. The 1840 census shows Benjamin with 2 boys ages 10-15, 1 boy 15-20, 1 girl 15-20, but no wife. The 1850 census shows Benjamin with wife Hannah, age 60 (5 years older than Benjamin). So Huldah, who is one year younger in the 1860 census, is likely a second wife.
