Greetings to all The latest update to the web site census data includes the entries of 1850 for Canaan Township in Wayne County. This township is the home of the SWINGLE family, whose descendants are very active on the areas mailing lists. Hopefully some of them will find data of interest, since 165 names (out of the almost 2000 new entries) have the SWINGLE surname. Perhaps one of those many people can assist in this cross referencing of the census data with lineage data also included on the site. The following SWINGLE families are listed in the census but I have no family data. First name Age http://www.dsdata.com.au/cgi-bin/1850house.cgi?wayne0can10 Chauncey 23 http://www.dsdata.com.au/cgi-bin/1850house.cgi?wayne0can26 Aaron 29 http://www.dsdata.com.au/cgi-bin/1850house.cgi?wayne0can27 Abram 48 http://www.dsdata.com.au/cgi-bin/1850house.cgi?wayne0can28 Henry 45 http://www.dsdata.com.au/cgi-bin/1850house.cgi?wayne0can32 Joseph 25 http://www.dsdata.com.au/cgi-bin/1850house.cgi?wayne0can49 Joseph 47 http://www.dsdata.com.au/cgi-bin/1850house.cgi?wayne0can59 Harman 37 http://www.dsdata.com.au/cgi-bin/1850house.cgi?wayne0can154 Bar 57 http://www.dsdata.com.au/cgi-bin/1850house.cgi?wayne0can162 Ephraim 35 http://www.dsdata.com.au/cgi-bin/1850house.cgi?wayne0can293 Otha 40 ? http://www.dsdata.com.au/cgi-bin/1850house.cgi?wayne0can299 Benson 31 http://www.dsdata.com.au/cgi-bin/1850house.cgi?wayne0can324 Anson 25 http://www.dsdata.com.au/cgi-bin/1850house.cgi?wayne0sal225 Horatio 25 http://www.dsdata.com.au/cgi-bin/1850house.cgi?wayne0sal235 Israel 48 This will add to the 138 people (mostly SWINGLEs) in 21 familes (from the new census entries) have already been linked into the site's family database. Can you help document the SWINGLE family members from the above links? Researchers contributing data on a new person to the lineage area are recognized by the inclusion of their name and email address. Enjoy...
