This family appears in the 1840 US CensusS2 for Huron Co., Ohio, as:

John Slater: males: (1) 5-10 yrs, (2) 10-15 yrs, (2) 15-20 yrs, (1) 20-30 yrs, (1) 50-60 yrs; females: (1) 10-15 yrs, (1) 50-60 yrs.
John Slater Jr: males (1) 20-30 yrs, females (1) 20-30 yrs.

The family name had been generally spelled "Slaughter" in Rhode Island and Connecticut, but they appeared to be using "Slater" by the time they moved to Ohio, which is how it was carried forward from this generation on.
