    1. [OH-CENSUS] 1860 Unknown Co. or Meigs Co. Nicholas WEAVER

    3. According to the biography pasted below, Nicholas and Dorothy (Dolly) Weaver may have been living in Meigs Co., OH in 1860 because their daughter Lydia was married there in 1860 to Noah J. Roush. Nicholas Weaver b. 1803 PA and wife Dorothy b. 1812 OH were living in Mason Co., VA in 1850 and in Mason Co., WV in 1880. I cannot find Nicholas and Dorothy in 1860 or 1870 but have found some of their children no longer living with them. In 1850 their children were Eliza age 18, Margaret age 16, Decatur age 14, Levina age 12, Hamilton age 10, Lydia age 6, Elizabeth age 4, and Nicholas age 2. In 1851 they had a son Adam H. and in 1854 another son Andrew J. These last two sons should be with the parents in 1860. Would very much like to find Nicholas and Dorothy (Dolly) Weaver in the 1860 census.
