I found Solomon ... he's living next door to his sister Rhoda & George Osborn...as well as possibly another Osborn brother Jonathan in 1850 (see below)

1850 Madison Township, Daviess County, Indiana - November 1850
Series: M432 Roll: 140 Page: 181
Household 1339
Skaggs, Solomon age 25 Farmer Ind
Skaggs, Rebecca age 26 Ind
Skaggs, Henry S. age 1 Ind

2 Osborn families are living next door to Solomon Skaggs in 1850 Daviess County:
Household 1337
Osborn, George age 33
Osborn, Rhoda age 30
Osborn, Jacob age 11
Osborn, Rebecca age 8
Osborn, Sarah age 4
Osborn, John W. age 1

Household 1338
Osborn, Jonathan age 29
Osborn, Mary age 26
Osborn, Martha age 8
Osborn, Andrew age 5
Osborn, Daniel age 3

BUT this is the real tricky part... there are THREE Wesley Skaggs in Indiana in 1850 (possibly all JOHN WESLEY SKAGGS as well). Can you explain this?

(Father) Wesley Skaggs & (Mother) Hannah with a 21 year old John W. Skaggs in their household (see below:

1850 census Elmore Township, Daviess County, Indiana
Scaggs, John W. age 21 IN
Scaggs, Wesley age 56 TN
Scaggs, Hannah age 56 KY

AND THEN ...John Wesley Skaggs & Elizabeth(see below):

1850 Madison Township, Daviess County, IN - October 1850
M432, Roll 140, Page 179
Skaggs, John W. age 38 Farmer KY
Skaggs, Elizabeth age 40 Tenn
Skaggs, Solomon age 10 Ind
Skaggs, Margaret age 7 Ind
