Notes

Eli and William are listed together in the census household.

Marriage

I have doubts that Polly is the wife of William since the census does not indicate this. Need to check with Justin.

Census

William is living with the family of Eli Mulburger.

Marriage

At appears that the formality of a marriage took place after they had a family. Churches were far apart and both William and Sarah were illiterate. They were probably consumed with providing for the family and believed that the marriage was just a formality.
