1850 Federal Census for New York
Scriba, NY (Oswego Co)
[These are on pg 20 of 67 in
Ancestry.com census images. I searched Caleb
Carr and it indicated he was on pg 19. Taken 17 Oct 1850]
1687/1841
Lydia Carr 72 F RI
Mercy Carr 50 F NY $1200
Loisa Carr 40 F NY
[NOTE: Lydia could be the widow of Caleb Carr b 1776 West Greenwich, RI (Kent
Co) d 14 Sep 1814 Scriba, NY (Oswego Co). Mercy and Loisa could be unmarried
daughters or widowed daughters-in-law or one of each.]
[NOTE: Louisa is spelt Loisa in two instances for Carrs in the Scriba census.
Either the enumerator can't spell it, doesn't write well, or the name is
uniquely spelt.]
1689/1843
Spencer Carr 46 M NY Farmer $3500
Phylette Carr 46 F NY
Horatio A Carr 13 M NY
NOTE: Spencer was born 5 Oct 1803 and husband of Phileta Fox, then her sister
Cynthia Fox. He was son of Caleb Carr who died in 1814. Lydia above could be
Spencer's widowed mother.]
[NOTE: The Carr Book, by Arthur Carr, pg 198, shows "Horatio I Carr" b abt
1828 and says he died age 23, which, by his estimate, would have been abt
1851.
1690/1844
Caleb Carr 41 M NY Farmer $1800
Sarah Carr 29 F NY
Mary J Carr 6 F NY
Edward Carr 4 M NY
Sarah A Carr 2 F NY
Albert Carr 3/12 M NY
[NOTE: Caleb was born 15 Apr 1809 and was son of Caleb Carr who died in 1814.
Lydia above could be the younger Caleb's widowed mother.]
[NOTE: Many of the estimated dobs for above in Arthur Carr's book are
erroneous based on these ages.]
[These are on pg 50 of 67 in
Ancestry.com census images. I searched Caleb
Carr and it indicated he was on pg 49.]
1931/2100
Caleb Carr 45 M NY Farmer $2500
Jane Carr 40 F NY
Loisa Carr 17 F NY
Calvin Carr 15 M NY Cooper
George Carr 13 M NY
Lorenzo Carr 6 M NY
[NOTE: Caleb is identical with Caleb Carr b 16 Jul 1805 m Jane Smart. He made
his way from Rensselaer Co NY to Dodge Co WI via Oswego Co NY, where his
children were born. Caleb is second cousin of Caleb Carr b 1809 above, linked
back a few generations at Caleb Carr b 6 Nov 1702 and wife Sarah Richmond
through their children Caleb and Thurston.]
[NOTE: Lorenzo is identical with Caleb Carr b 27 Oct 1843, so I'm making him
Caleb Lorenzo Carr. Seems he used a middle name while a child living in a
household where his father had the same first name. His namesake seems to be
Caleb Lorenzo Carr b 10 Jul 1818, Lorenzo's father's first cousin, son of
Caleb's Uncle Caleb Carr b 6 Aug 1778.]
[NOTE: Louisa is spelt Loisa in two instances for Carrs in the Scriba census.
Either the enumerator can't spell it, doesn't write well, or the name is
uniquely spelt.]
