Hi Jim, The 1840 LCT census (Waller, 1970), p.26. (orig pagination p.25, District 25): Joel Dollins 1 m -5, 2 m 10-15, 1 m 20-30, 1 m 50-60; 2 f 5-10, 1 f 40-50; A-4. [next entry] J. A. Sloane 1 m 20-30; 2 f -5, 1 f 20-30; A-1 In my opinion, this is very strong evidence that Sophia married J.A. Sloan as he is listed with two little girls who match Emiley and Mary and lives next door to Joel Dollins. Will investigate further.
