    Notes:

    From 1850 Crawford County Census image ( #29 of 105 ) William Childers family lives only one home away from Nathaniel Sr and his family. In the 1840 Crawford census, William and his wife and one female child at age < 5 years are enumerated. By 1850 William has added 8 more children in those 10 years. There is no record of William or his family in the 1860 Crawford census. There must almost certainly be a family connection between William b. cir 1819 and Nathaniel b. cir 1799, but non has been documented yet.
