Correct? If you do the math to calculate the birth date for Eve Catherine Bushong of this 1830 census, using the age range from the 1830 census, you have quoted, you have a birthdate of between 1770 and 1780. What were the dates of birth for Jacob Bushong, the Revolutionary War soldiers children? Gloria
Gloria, I am not sure what the fuss is about. In the Grandview Cemete;ry, there are tombstones for both Jacob and Samuel. Both are credited with Revolutionary War Service. So why can't we let them both Rest In Peace. I don't understand your reasoning in saying "Jacob is Samuel" There is also a tombstone for Eva Catherine Bossert, Wife of Jacob Bushong. I doubt that someone would "make up" tombstones !! This is my last comment on the issue.
