The census shows children Maria and Henry as being born in Ohio and all other s born in Arkansas. One researcher said that Charles lived his whole life in Sangamon and be cause of the 6 month old baby being listed as Arkansas it is possible that the census taker l isted all birth places as Arkansas even though some may have been Illinois. I put the childr en born after 1850 as being born in Illinois because the Sprinkler family was not in the 185 0 census of Sangamon.
