I found them!!!I use the "LDS Family Search" which you can find thru google.com.The family is listed as "Hanlan" in the 1880 Census and my Family Records are not quite correct.I have no Albert and Eli instead of Margaret.Of course, Eli may have died in childhood and so does not show up on these records.
I also found a family group record with the name spelled Hanlen.(I go through this all the time with my name.Anything that begins with "H" and ends with "n" seems to be fair game.I've been called Hamilton on more than one occasion.)
From the family group sheet:Eli born 1827 married 1861 to Harriet Lisk born 1831.Her parents:Nicholas P. Lisk (1803--1875) and Susan Hill (1805--1846) married ca 1820.Her mother was born in NY; all others born in Ohio.
Children: 1) Albert H. born 18632) Nicholas born 18663) Richard L. born 1868 4)Margaret born 1874 5) Mary C. born 1877 6) Amanda E. born 1879.
I hope this helps you all and thanks to your queries I now have some corrected information for my family records.To put you in perspective:This Eli is a half-brother to my husband's great-grandfather, so Albert is a 1st cousin to my hubby's grandfather; John & Richard are 2nd cousins to my hubby's father; and their children are 3rd cousins to my hubby.Anyone know who they are?
