    2. In searching for ancestor connection, a fellow researcher provided the following information from the 1850 Whitley County, KY census: 1,   Samuel Shadowns, age 54, wife Ciller, age 51, children Ann age 13 and William age 11.  This in district 2-400. 2.    In district 1-519 is another Samuel Shadowen age 55, wife Nancy age 50, children Reuben age 18, Miles age 15, Jane age 14, Sally age 12, Hamilton age 11, John age 8, James age 7, Juda age 5 and Luisa age 3. 3.    In district 1-518 is John Shadowen age 30, wife Polly age 28, children Samuel age 7, George age 6, Lewis age 5, Nancy age 3 and James age 1. The Samuel I was tracing is NO 1, Samuel Shadowens, AKA Samuel Chaudoin, s/o of Andrew M and Sarah Matthews Wheeler Moore Chaudoin.   Andrew was apparently the first of the Chaudoin to move to KY, settling in Green County about 1795.  The son, Samuel O was born about 1796 and married Prescilla (Ciller) Chandler about 1818 in Washington County, KY.  They lived several places in addition to Whitley County, including Indiana in their first years.  I am trying to connect a daughter Emmaliza, born about 1828 in Whitley County to this couple.  She married Bennett Powers 1849 in Campbell County, TN, they subsequently moved to Lincoln County, KY. I have no idea who Samuel NO 2 is, or the branch of the family that he would connect.   No. 3 John may be his son? Appreciate any comment or suggestion. Gene Martin
