1860 Washington Twp., Tippecanoe Co., Indiana
Enumeration Date: June 16, 1860
Page: 439
Line: 39
Dwelling/Family: 250/245
Star, John - age 33, farmer, born in VA
" Emily - age 24, wife, born in Canada
" Elizabeth - age 6, born in IN
" Gloster - age 4, born in IN (male)
" Deamaris - age 2, born in IN
" Louisa - age 3/12, born in IN
James, Holmes - age 19, farm laborer, born in IN
" William - age 23, farm laborer, born in IN
Burn, Louisa - age 19, born in IN
(I think that John Star (age 33) is the same person as John "Garret" (age 24)
listed in the 1850 census, and that his name in 1850 probably should have been Star. It
could be the enumerator carried the "Garret" name down instead of changing it
back to Star)
The other John Garret listed in 1850 is probably the actual John Garret)
Line: 8
Dwelling/Family: 250/246
Star, Elizabeth - age 65, widow farmer, born in VA
" Antony - age 19, serving, born in IN (listed as Anthony Garret in 1850)
" Albert - age 17, laborer, born in IN
Stackhouse, Charles - age 21, laborer, born in IN
I think the Sarrasin family you found in Carroll Co., IN is Irene's family. As for
Simon, I am coming up empty except for the marriage record................Karen
