(Note: I am sending this a second time, as I am not sure that the Behymer list received it the first time I sent it out) No, I don't mean Sidewalk Sally's favorite customers, I mean all of those John Behymers who show up as heads of household in the 1820, 1830 and 1840 censuses. Ever wonder which John Behymer was which? Well, I think I have the answer. It has taken me a while to sort them out, but here are my conclusions, a little contribution to the Behymer list (note: there are a few holes and some speculation, so I welcome comments, corrections, additions, etc): 1820 - Clermont County, OH John Behymer (000100/00100) This is John Abraham Behymer (son of Joseph Behymer and Christina Lazena) and his wife Margaret Short 1820 - Preble County, OH Jonathan Behymer (000010/00100) This is Jonathan Behymer (thought to be one of the 9 or more original brothers and son of John Behymer, Sr and Anne Elizabeth Rinker) and his wife, ? Note: The maiden name of John, Sr's wife, Rinker, comes from the IGI, and, as far as I no, has not been verified; her first name has variously been recorded as Anne and Elizabeth; according to John & John Pickelsimer in their book, Pickelsimers of Eastern Kentucky, they conclude that they are one and the same person, i.e., Anne Elizabeth) 1830 - Clermont County, OH John Behymer (0000100000000/0001000000000) This is John Behymer (son of Samuel Behymer and Catherine Logan) and his wife, Nancy Leach John Behymer (0200010000000/4100100000000) This is John Behymer (son of Nathaniel Behymer and Anna Magdalena ?) and his wife, Jane Meeker 2 male children 5-10 Nathaniel, William M 4 female children 0-5 Ann, Harriett J, Caroline, ? 1 female child 5-10 Charity John Behymer (1100010000000/2100100000000) This is John Abraham Behymer (son of Joseph Behymer and Christina Lazena) and his wife Margaret Short 1 Male child 0-5 Elijah 1 male child 5-10 Isaac 2 female children 0-5 ?, ? 1 female child 5-10 Mary Jonathan Behymer (0000001000000/0000001000000) This is Jonathan Behymer (thought to be one of the 9 or more original brothers and son of John Behymer, Sr and Anne Elizabeth Rinker) and his wife, ? 1830 - Lawrence County, IN John Behymer (1311201000000/1000001000000) This is John L(eonard) Behymer (probable son of John Behymer, Jr and Barbara Weddle) and his wife, Charity Ann Harger (or Anna Henry or Anna Hunter) 1 male child 0-5 Lemuel (or Samuel) 3 male children 5-10 Thomas, Alexander, ? 1 male child 10-15 Benjamin W 1 male child 15-20 Henry (or James?) 2 male children 20-30 Charles, Andrew 1 female child 0-5 Rebecca 1840 - Clermont County, OH John Behymer (3200010000000/01001) This is John Behymer (son of Samuel Behymer and Catherine Logan) and his wife, Nancy Leach 3 male children 0-5 Perry, Jerome, Lexias 2 male children 5-10 Barrington, Clarrington 1 female child 5-10 Emily John Behymer (0000100000000/1000100000000) This is John Behymer (son of Solomon Behymer and Mary Webb) and his wife, Sarah John 1 female child 0-5 Mary A John Behymer (0000100000000/0100100000000) This may be John Behymer (son of Jacob Behymer and Elizabeth France) and his wife, Martha Medaris as he is shown living next to Elias and Daniel Behymer, known sons of Jacob and Elizabeth. There should be two sons, however, one in the 0-5 (Jacob M) and one in the 5-10 category (William S) which are not listed, so this is somewhat of a speculation on my part - comments? 1 female child 5-10 ? 1840 - Fulton County, IL John Behymer (2011100100000/1101100100000) This is John L(eonard) Behymer (probable son of John Behymer, Jr and Barbara Weddle) and his wife, Charity Ann Harger (or Anna Henry or Anna Hunter) 2 male children 0-5 ?, ?
