Renae (McKeever) Krisher comments: Samuel Cole is listed in 2 households in the 1850 census. His children: Samuel, Holbert, Oliver, Anna, and Sally are in house 990 in 1850 and are still in his home with second wife, Catherine, in 1860. It is unclear why there is a discrepancy in birth year and state in the 1850 census.
