5. THOMAS LEACHMAN was born about 1804 in Virginia and died 2 Jan 1880 possible in Clay County, Indiana. He married UNKNOWN.
Thomas and his family were listed in the 1850 & 1870 Censuses as follows:
1850 Hancock County Sugar Creek Township Indiana
Wineford Leachman Female
age 65 born about 1785
Thomas age 46 born about 1804 Virginia
William age 15 born about 1835
Emeline age 12 born about 1837/8
Henry age 8 born about 1842
1870 Clay County Indiana (census info taken 26 July 1870)
Thomas age 66 Male White Farmer born Virginia
Emaline age 33 Female White Keeping House born Indiana
Henry age 28 Male White Works on Farm born Indiana
Emily J Fortner age 13 Female White born Indiana
John Nusold? age 64 Male White born Wurtenburg FM
I've seen research that says Thomas was married to an Emaline who was born about 1837 in Indiana. This was of course his daughter, not his wife. Thomas's first child, William was born about 1835, which would make him two years older than his mother!. Someone got confused reading the 1870 Census information which has Emaline in the line where the wife is usually listed. Actually there is no proof that William, Emeline/Emaline, and Henry are Thomas's children but they must be since Emeline/Emaline and Henry were still living in his household in 1870.
