Research:

Some questions raised in the census - 

Who Is Elizabeth Ingersoll in 1850?

There are more than 2 children with them in 1830 - did they have additional children?

William Lewis was born at lewis Lake.  He lived with his mother who married Abraham Woolever, until adulthood.  they lived in Gamble Township.  On November 7, 1839 he was married to Mary Jane Casterline, of Eldred Township.  She was the daughter of Jacob Casterline Jan 16 1793- Oct 28 1864 & Johannah Sebring Oct 15 1796- Jan 21 1876

They also had one son, Charles Ira Casterline, Born May 15 1821.  He lived only one day.

All of the above are buried in Oaklawn Cemetery in Eldred Township.
