I think he is the 15 - 19 male on the 1840 census. The other male on there is probably his brother, William. I haven't checked out the 1830.

He is the son, 6th child, of Jacob Emerson Colby and Mehitable Pool
Corliss. He MIGHT be a posthumus child, since Jacob Emerson Colby died in
September, 1825 - the same year he was born. I don't have his actual birth
date.
