Individual Details

1820 Census. Todd Co KY
Nancy ?Haden, living next door to Wm Porter, and Mary Porter.
1 male under 10, 1 male age 10-16. 1f under 10. 2 females 10-16, 1 female over 45. 6 slaves.
There is a question about her name as written and it may not be Haden, although certainly the first three letters are "Had"
There is also a Jos. Haden in Todd Co - he had 2 males under 10, 1 male 16-26 and 1 male 26-45. and a female age 26-45. 5 slaves.
Neither of these is a good fit as Joseph & Nancy would have both been in their late 30's, but their children in 1820 were Rezin, age 14 and Joseph D., age 6, Elizabeth 12, and Mary age 9. As far as I know, the exact date of death of Joseph is unknown. The first entry is a closer match to the family except there is an extra female age 10-16, and Nancy is a bit too old.
Neither Joseph nor Nancy is listed in Christian or Logan Counties in 1820.

Beginning in 1826, Nancy Hayden/Haden is listed on the Tax Rolls of Logan Co KY; 100 acres land on the Red River; 7 total slave, 2 horses in 1826. She had a son at home, age 21 in 1828 - this would be Rezin Porter. In 1829 Rezin is listed alone & seems to be claiming ownership of her slaves as she does not state any this year, although she still claims 100 acres of land. In 1830, only Nancy is listed with 200 acres on the Red, 11 slaves, 4 horses - perhaps a joint household with Rezin again.
