![1850 U.S. census, DeWitt County, Texas, dwelling 226: Richd H.

How it is shown: Complete page as supplied; no crop, no retouch, no search highlight.
Keep in mind: What the page says: Richd H. Chisolm is 57 (first read 51; the reviewer and E read 57, and the image shows a hooked 7), farmer, b. Georgia, real estate $15,000; Hardina [possibly Hardena; the reading is uncertain] 46 b. Tennessee; Thornton 19; Bradford 14; Maryann 8; the infant Richard is 7 months (7/12, not 6/12), all b. Texas; the last line is a laborer aged 25 b. Maryland whose surname is unclear (Emery, Enrey or Emrey). The 1850 census has no relationship column, so no relationship is stated, and 'Ann' does not appear. Whether these are our people: Likely, not Confirmed. The names, the Texas place and the children's ages fit the tree's Richard Henry Chisholm, Hardena Taylor, Glen Thornton and Bradford Chisholm, but age 57 gives a birth about 1793, not the tree's 1799, and the page does not give Hardena's maiden name. Maryann (8) is tagged to the tree's Mary Ann 'Annie' Chisholm (b. 1842) on name and age only; that she is the Ann Kelso (20) of the 1860 census is only Likely and is not shown by this page. Not tagged: the infant Richard (the tree's Richard Chisholm is b. 1830) and the laborer.
