Hi, After checking the 1850 census you probably are right that John and Sally were her parents and Clark her brother. In the 1850 census In Concord, Jackson, Michigan are; Dewey; Timothy age 55 b. 1794 in Vermont Sally 49 b. 1802 in New York Nelson 23 b. 1826 N.Y. Emily 21 b. N.Y. Salntha/Samantha 19 b. N.Y. Asa 18 b. N.Y. Harriet 14 b. N.Y. Orton 9 b. N.Y. Geroge 4 b. N.Y. and Horace 1 b. N.Y. I still can't find James and Amanda in the 1850's, it would be the year her child was born. Or her parents?
