In 1850 he was infant living with his parents Thomas and Susan in Kentucky. [1] Looks like he had twin sister Susan.
Research Notes
Apparently he committed suicide using carbolic acid... obviously in shock and distraught some of the information is wrong and confusing on the death certificate. Allen their son, my ggf, gave his parents info instead of deceased's parents names. Death certificate is in Lapel, Indiana he was then moved to Kansas for burial.
