I came across some census information that is very interesting. It brings up the question
as to whether Mary Truett was married to both a James Lake (marriage records prove this)
and also a Henderson Lake (haven't located any marriage records yet).
I found a household in the 1850 Warren Co., Indiana census headed by an Eliza Lake, age
50, born in New Jersey. Children listed are: William, age 25, farmer, born in Ohio;
Permelia, age 22, born in Ohio; Henderson, age 15, born in Indiana; and James, age 13,
born in Indiana.
Initially I thought maybe James' middle name was either Henderson or Henry based on
census and marriage records info but this 1850 census info could change that idea. I have
not found a James & Mary Lake listed in any census so far. The only Lake married to a
Mary is Henderson and I find them in the 1880 Warren Co., IN census & 1900 Tippecanoe
Co., IN census. By the 1910 census Mary is widowed and living with her youngest son Henry
in Tippecanoe Co., IN.
I hope this information helps and if you would like any additional info just let me know.
