Pop-up Pedigree

Father   **James Black b. circa 1781, d. 9 December 1859
Mother   **Jane Hamilton b. between 1780 and 1781, d. 5 January 1863

Note The will of her father James, names her as child of James Black and Jane, his wife. Also shows on 1830 census as 10-15 years old.1

Birth between 1810 and 1815 Margaret was born between 1810 and 1815. Margaret does not show on the 1810 census as there are no FEMALE children in her parents household on that census.

 
(Witness) Cen1820 1820 Margaret Black may appear on the 1820 census in the household of James Black in Cumberland, Adams county, Pennsylvania. This census reports James family as 1-4-0-0-1-0- 3-0-0-1-0 0-2. This indicates 1 male under 10; 4 males 10-16; 1 male 26-45; 3 females under 10; 1 female 26-45; engaged ag. Father James is the male 26-45 therefore born between 1775 and 1794. The 1 male under 10 is likely Franklin. The 4 males 10 to 16 are Robert, William, John and James. The 3 females under 10 are Matilda, Maria and Margaret. Wife Jane is the female 26 to 45.2

(Witness) Cen1830 1830 Margaret Black may appear on the 1830 census in the household of James Black in Mt Joy, Adams county, Pennsylvania, There is NO James in Cumberland but Mt. Joy and Cumberland may be the same place. 0-0-1-1-0-0-1. The male 40-50 would be James if he was born about 1781 and therefore about 49 years old. The male 15 to 20 would be son James who is purported to have been born about 1811 and therefore would be 18/19 on this census. The 10-15 year old male would be Franklin who, if born about 1818 would be 12 on this census. The 3 females 15-20 Matilda, Margaret and Maria while the 1 female 40-50 would be wife Jane.

We are assuming that this James is William Henry's father. William H. is not in the household as he is already married. Sons John and Robert are married by this time and therefore not in this household either..3
