Ken, In checking the 1850 Census index on the Kosciusko Co. USGenWeb page, the following family shows up (the only Geiger family in the index): GEIGER Henry D. 32 M Farmer 1000 PA GEIGER Mary 26 F OH GEIGER John H. 6 M OH GEIGER Geo. W. 4 M IN GEIGER Alertis L. 2 M IN GEIGER Edward W. 2/12 M IN I think that this is likely the Henry and John Henry you have mentioned, however it would make Henry's year of birth 1818 rather than 1803. The states of birth are listed on the right-hand side. I do not have any connections to or ancestors of this family currently, though I have been hanging on to the info in the hopes that I will find a connection to my gg-grandmother Emily Geiger (1880-1966) in Kosciusko Co. - perhaps one of the sons is her father? Does anyone currently have info on the grandchildren of Henry?
