Norm, Thanks for sharing your speculations. It does seem likely that, since Henry was only 8 when he came to the US, he (or whoever talked to the census taker) might have mistakenly assumed that he was born in Saxe-Coburg based on conversations he remembered (or mis-remembered) hearing while he was growing up. You raise an excellent point. With whom did Henry live after his parents died? Heinrich, his father, died in 1847. In 1850 the census shows him living with his mother Christina and his brothers and sister; their real estate was valued at $200. Henry was 14; his older brothers, Frederick (20) and Lewis (16) were listed as farmers. Frederick was married in 1851. Then in 1855, when Henry was 19, his mother died; the youngest child was 10. Did Frederick, as the oldest son, inherit the farm? In 1856 Frederick (26), Henry (20) and their younger brother William (14) moved to IL. According to William's obituary, William lived with his brother Fred after his parents died. Fred was 15 when they came to the US, so he would surely have known where the family came from. Your point about the church records being more accurate than those records based on memories (census) is well taken. I should probably focus my search on Hanover and put Saxe-Coburg on the back burner. But I do need to revisit the 1860 census and see who those other families were that claimed to be from Saxe-Coburg. Thank you for helping me think this through.

The census records of Henry Lange/Long apparently changed multiple times: 1850-Germany, 1860-Saxe-Coburg, 1870-Germany, 1880-Hanover, 1900-Germany. By the way, there was no country named "Germany" before 1871, only weak alliances of Germanic nations. So we must "read his mind" to know why he or someone gave those answers or which was correct. Obviously you or I cannot do that. We can only speculate. How is this for speculation? Henry Lange/Long was born about 1837 in Hanover, where his parents had married in 1829. (Church records are generally more accurate than census records.) The family may have moved briefly to Saxe-Coburg before emigrating from there in 1844, or they may have joined an emigrating group of friends/relatives from Saxe-Coburg on their way to Bremen. His father died the following year (1845), so perhaps they lived together with another family after that and the head of that household told the 1850 census taker "Germany". His mother died about 1855, so perhaps close families from Saxe-Coburg helped raise him. Thus the 1860 census answer of "Saxe-Coburg" by the head-of-household. By the 1870 census, he was 33; in his confusion, the generic "Germany" seemed a safe answer. By 1880 he recognized and declared his true birth place. By 1900, all former German nations were referred to with the generic "Germany". What do you think? Would anybody else care to speculate?

This confirms what I have found in my studies. So the next question is, what might account for the Hanover/Saxe-Coburg discrepancy? Some related information: - Henry Lange/Long was 23 years old in 1860 when the census lists his place of birth as Saxe Coberg. He was only 8 when the family came to the US from Germany. I suppose an 8 year old might have been confused about his birthplace. His father died in 1845, and his mother died in ~1855. - The 1860 census in the same county lists several other persons whose members were born in Saxe-Coburg. I need to revisit that census and see who they were. - The obituaries of three of the Lange/Long brothers all state that each was born in Hanover.

In early 1826, the tiny Saxon duchies in the Thuringian hills at the heart of Europe were re-arranged. Among them emerged Saxe-Coburg-Gotha which was later associated with the British royal family. This tiny state existed on the northern border of Bavaria, between Bavaria and Saxe-Meiningen. It lay east of Frankfurt and north of Nuremberg. To my knowledge, the British-ruled Kingdom of Hannover never extended south of a point east of Kassel, about 60 miles north of Coburg. From http://www.eurohistory.com/ernst.html : The duchy of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha was formed by the joining of two separate, neighboring, principalities, [Saxe and Gotha]. The principality of Coburg had previously been inherited by members of the Saxe-Altenburg family in the XVIIth century. The principality of Gotha came under the family's control after the death of the last reigning duke [in 1825]. His only daughter, Prince Louise of Saxe-Gotha, was the wife of Duke Ernst I of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld. In exchange for Gotha, a much more desirable principality, Duke Ernst gave away the duchy of Saalfeld. From that date on, the family was known by the name of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha.

Kay, Often information that is lacking in an ancestor's documents will be found in the records of his siblings. You might want to research Frederick, Lewis, and William to see what that reveals.
