A possiblity:

1860/IN/Jennings/Spencer/VernonPO/p.263
Sullivan, Noah 26 farmer IN
Sullivan, Sarah 20 IN
Sullivan, Henry 6 IN
Sullivan, Charles 4 IN
Sullivan, Mary 2 IN

Next door is also a Noah Sullivan, age 74 and born in VA;wife Mary Sullivan, age 72, and Lilly Sullivan, age 21. However, in 1850 the younger Noah is listed in Henry Sullivan's household.

I can't find a Jesse family in Jennings county in 1850 or in all of IN. The name is probably misspelled in the marriage record.

I'm not sure what happened after this date. I found a record in the IN marriage index of a Sarah J. Sullivan marrying Benjamin Fewell in 1862 in Jennings county but when I looked at the 1870 census (spelled Benjamin Fuell) I couldn't be sure it was the right Sarah. Her age was off by a great deal (she was much older) and while she did have a daughter named Mary in the house the right age it was such a common name that you can't be sure. No sign of Henry and Charles. I found a Henry and Charles Sullivan close to the right ages in other households in 1870 but since relationship to the head of the household is not given that year we don't know if they are sons or nephews.
