Helen: Checked indices to Fayette County Genealogical Society's printed versions of 1850 (federal), 1855 (state), 1860 (federal) and 1865 (state) censuses. Could not find a Samuel Tharp in any of them. However, these extraction copies are subject to error (and I always could have misread the entries too). I do know that a number of my people, who should be there in 1860, aren't. Shown in 1850: Tharp, Calvin H., 45, farmer, TN; Amy 40, TN; Melinda 17, William E. 14, Francis 12, Mary J. 10, Margaret L. 8, Henry L. 5, Martha A. 3. In 1855: Tharp, Calvin (p. 33): 1 M under 10, 1 M 10-20, 1 M 20-30, 1 M 40-50; 2 F under 10, 1 F 10-20, 1 F 40-50. In 1860 no Tharp families at all are indexed ( and I'd think Calvin should be there). The closest listing is "THROUP?, Josiah, 22, M, farm labor, b. Ohio" -- that question mark is the extractor's, not mine. This fellow is shown living with John & Selina Durban in Howard (now Avena) township. The 1865 Census shows three Tharps: Tharp, Abe (p. 47, Kaskaskia Twp): 2 F under 10, 1 F 20-20, 1 M 30-40 Tharp, John (p. 46, Kaskaskia Twp): 1 M under 10, 1 M & 1 F 20-30 Tharp, C.H. (p. 57, Ramsey Twp): 1 F under 10, 1 M & 2 F, 10-20, 1F 40-50, 1 M 50-60 On the 1870 index are John, Calvin and a Mary Thorp. If you want these listings, let me know.
