SAWYER FAMILY TREE

John Sawyer

DOB: (10/07/1789 - 08/28/1850)

Married:(06/07/1815)

Maria

(09/??/1794 - 02/21/1867)

Note:

On the 1850 census for Schuyler County MO, John Sawyer is listed as being 60 years old. This census was taken during the first quarter of the year of 1850. John had not had is birthday yet that year and was listed as 60, which would of made him 61 in Oct. that year if he was born in Oct. I get Oct. 7, 1794 from my Grandfather Henry's paper, but that would of made him only 55 when the census was taken. According to court records, James Hepburn was made Administrator of John's estate on Sept. 9, 1850. Maria was listed as Mariah on the 1850 census at the age of 56. Both were listed as born in Delaware.

I have seen Maria's name as Mariah, and Boman, Borman and Bowman, Grandpa Henry had it as Boman. All the other names and dates match to other family trees I have found them in.

Maria is barried in Zion Cemetery in Wapello County, south of Ottumwa Iowa on Copperhead RD next to Son William and both wifes. Nancy on his left and Sarah on his right

In Henry's list of Children, I find two girls not mentioned in other's list I have found. They are the two youngest listed above.

Also from Grandpa Henry's notes: "John Sawyer was born in Ohio, his wife Mary Boman was born in Delaware, their children lived in Indianna as I have been told, my father which was the oldest. And I see a record showing my Aunt Lacy which was the youngest of the family born in Vermillion County Indianna."

From census records, I find the some of the children list Ohio, Indiana and Illonis as their place of birth. Vermillion County Indiana has a historical web site and lists a John Sawyer as an early settlers of the county.
