I’m not related to any member of this family. 1940 is the last available census at this time. Facts you should know about the early census records - All census records [1790 – 1840] prior to the 1850 census ONLY listed the head of household; whether male or female. NO specific age was stated for any family member NO place of birth was stated – city, state, or country NO city, town, or village is stated – only the county; however some census takers listed the township NO street address was stated NO marital status was stated – single, married, widowed, or divorced NO family relationship was stated – brother, sister, cousin, son, daughter, wife, inlaw, etc… NO occupation was stated NO parental birthplaces are stated                      NO race was stated [but assume “white”]         1850, 1860 & 1870 census records do not show family relationships, marital status or parental birthplaces. Step children are not enumerated as “step” children Adopted children are not enumerated as “adopted” Grand children are not enumerated as “grand children” Orphaned children were not enumerated as "orphan" 1850 is the 1st census that shows all family members 1880 is the 1st census that shows parental birthplaces and family relationships +++ Missouri Death Records Death certificates for Missouri 1910-1961 deaths can be downloaded and printed out for FREE, at this site: - - Birth & Death records for Missouri began in 1910 - - http://www.sos.mo.gov/archives/resources/deathcertificates/#search 1840 - format for early census records Name: Japtha Kite Home in 1840 (City, County, State): Merrimac, Jefferson, Missouri Free White Persons - Males - Under 5: 1 Free White Persons - Males - 5 thru 9: 1 Free White Persons - Males - 15 thru 19: 1 Free White Persons - Males - 40 thru 49: 1 Free White Persons - Males - 60 thru 69: 1 Free White Persons - Females - Under 5: 2 Free White Persons - Females - 5 thru 9: 1 Free White Persons - Females - 10 thru 14: 2 Free White Persons - Females - 40 thru 49: 1 Persons Employed in Agriculture: 2 Free White Persons - Under 20: 8 Free White Persons - 20 thru 49: 2 Total Free White Persons: 11 Total All Persons - Free White, Free Colored, Slaves: 11 1850 - Name: Jeptha Kite Age: 62 Birth Year: abt 1788 Birthplace: England Home in 1850: District 42, Jefferson, Missouri Race: White Gender: Male Jeptha Kite 62, ENG Susan Kite 52, ENG Mary Kite 23, ENG Permelia Kite 13, MO Jeptha Kite 17, MO Joseph Kite 14, MO Elizabeth Kite 11, MO James Wood 7, MO Susan Bell 25, ENG - unknown relationship Susan Bell 8m, MO - unknown relationship 1860 - Name: Susan Kite Age in 1860: 61 Birth Year: abt 1799 Birthplace: England Home in 1860: Valle, Jefferson, Missouri Gender: Female Post Office: Avoca Ritchard Kite 38, ENG - farmer Mildred J Kite 31, KY Irene Kite 15, MO William Kite 13, MO Susan E Kite 11, MO Richard E Kite 9, MO Henry J Kite 7, MO Amanda J Kite 6, MO Willis C Kite 3, MO Susan Kite 61, ENG Pomelia Kite 18, MO Elizabeth Kite 23, MO Passenger and Immigration Lists Index, 1500s-1900s Name: Susannah Kite Year: 1832 Age: 32 Estimated Birth Year: abt 1800 Place: New York, New York Source Publication Code: 503.11 Primary Immigrant: Kite, Susannah HOW can Harriet Kite [b 1860 Eng] be the dau of Jeptha and Susan Kite when Jeptha died in 1851??
