Henry Barringer - Union Co. IL
I need some help sorting out the Henry Barringer's of Union Co. IL
Union Co. IL marriage records list the following marriages:
Henry BARRINGER to Susan CORRELL on 12 Mar 1835.
Henry BARRINGER, JR. to Lavina TREESE on 13 Oct 1836.
Henry BARRINGER to Seritha WHITE on 20 Feb 1844.
The only listing of a Henry Barringer in the 1850 Illinois Census was for Henry Barringer, age 51, and his wife, Seritha. This appears to be the [John?]Henry Barringer who married Seritha White in 1844.
In 1860, the Union Co. IL census listed Henry Barringer, age 44, and his wife, Lavina, age 38, with 11 children - Martha, age 20; Crawford, age 22; Charlotte, age 18; Elizabeth, age 16; John, age 14; James, age 12; Samuel, age 10; Melissa, age 8; Sarah, age 6; Levina, age 3, and Regina, age 3. This appears to be [James?} Henry Barringer who married Lavinia Treece in 1836.
In 1870 Henry Barringer, age 54, and his wife, SUSAN, age 40, were listed with 11 children. Some of the children's names are the same as those for Henry and Levina in 1860, but there are several others not listed in 1850.
Is this [James] or [John]Henry Barringer or a completely different person?
Where was he in 1850?
Did James or John marry twice?
I have seen several conflicting family trees on these persons. Any help sorting this out would be greatly appreciated.
