DEARDUFF, Sarah 49 f w PA
John 30 m w farmer VA
Samuel 21 m w farmer OH
Matilda 16 f w OH
Thomas 15 m w OH
Sarah Dearduff's age in the 1850 census record looks like 49, but I believe it's really 69, if 49 that would make her born in 1801 and marrying in 1808, which should not ever happen, but if it is 69 which would make it more in line with her death age, it would make her born 1779-1781, marrying in 1808 around age 27-29, her deathage on tombstone says 78, which would make her born circa 1779.
