1860 Census Pickaway County, Ohio

The Census below shows Meek Steely (#47) and his family.

Immediately below is a transcribed copy of the census page. Below that is are two images of segments of the actual census page. The first image is information concerning the census collection date and location. The second image is information pertaining to Meek and his family. At the time of this census, Meek was 62 and a farmer. He had a farm laborer, L. Thomas, helping him.

[Note: Meek's only son and an adult (William), is listed immediately above Meek on the census. William is listed as 25 years of age. His wife, Margaret is also listed as 25. They have three children (Elisabeth -6, Franklin -3, and Ellen F. -2). William's tombstone lists his date of birth as 1831. That means he would have been 29 in 1860, not 25. Margaret's tombstone lists her date of birth as 1831. She would have also been 29 in 1860. Meek's youngest child (Rosaltha) is only 3 years older than his grandchild (Elisabeth)]
