NOTE - The oldest son, Levi, was married just before the census enumeration and was living nearby with his wife. The youngest daughter, Cora, supposedly was born in Indiana but with a birth year of 1870 that would be impossible because the family moved to Missouri in 1866. Since she is not listed on the 1870 census but is listed on the 1880 census, she was either missed on the 1870 census or was born shortly after the 1870 census.
