Since the 1830 does not list the names of all members of the household only their sex and age ranges, these other members are unknown. Ages of both Shadrachs appear to be off a couple years; and it should be noted that no other member of Shadrach's family is known to have been married by 1830 except for Margaret who married Granberry True, and Ezekiel who was living in Sangamon Co. IL.

The 1830 census does not provide names of other members of the household other than head of household, but as noted above, I have provided this additional information to the best of my knowledge. It was known that the two older daughters were married by this time.  Daughter Margaret had married Sam Meredith and daughter Louisa had married Ezekiel Pilcher and was living six houses away enumerated in that household with one daughter Mary Jane and pregnant with Caroline - who was born that October.
