2 CONT MY NOTES:  attempting to interpret this Census;
2 CONT Males - 2 five & under 10 - could be boys who died (notice big gap 
2 CONC between Aarron & Harriet in 1850)
2 CONT              1 fifteen to twenty - Aarron Matley
2 CONT              2 twenty to thirty - William Matley & John Matley
2 CONT              1 sixty to seventy - John Matley (will label him 1st for 
2 CONC now)
2 CONT Females - 1 five & under 10 - Harriet Matley
2 CONT                  1 fifteen to twenty - daughter who has left home by 1850 
2 CONC (maybe married, died, etc.)
2 CONT                  1 fifty to sixty - Elizabeth Matley
2 CONT I do believe there were other children as William was born about 
2 CONC 1810-1812 making John "the 1st" around 32 to 34 years of age when William 
2 CONC was born/Elizabeth would have been about 24 or 26.  With that thought (if 
2 CONC they got married at about 28 for John "the 1st" and 20 for Elizabeth), at 
2 CONC a child every two years - there could be two to three more siblings for 
2 CONC William, Aarron, John "the 2nd" and Harriet.

2 CONT Father: Rufus Streeter (      -      )
2 CONT Mother:  [none listed]
2 CONT General Notes: 
2 CONT 1]  From Patricia Rockwell, correspondent.
2 CONT A family group sheet was sent to me from my aunt Chelys Hester which she 
2 CONC has been tabulating for many years. It lists Phoebe Sprague as the mother 
2 CONC of Jonathan Sprague Matley. Jonathan is my great grandfather and was born 
2 CONC in Jefferson Co., Indiana. The sheet indicates that the information comes 
2 CONC from Civil War records, the Matley family bible, and court records.
2 CONT A year or so ago, I contacted a researcher in Indiana named Colleen 
2 CONC Ridlen. She found a deed from a Hosea Sprague who she believes to be 
2 CONC Phoebe's father as he is listed as living with Phoebe and her husband 
2 CONC William Matley in 1850 according to the 1850 Jefferson County, Indiana 
2 CONC census. Ms. Ridlen also reported that Hosea Sprague appeared alone in the 
2 CONC 1820, 1830, and 1840 censuses of Jefferson County, Indiana. Neither Hosea 
2 CONC nor Phoebe are listed in the 1860 census. I also am including family 
2 CONC group sheets and charts for Hosea and Phoebe.
2 CONT 2]  From David L. Phillips, correspondent.
2 CONT Based upon the 1820 Indiana, Jefferson County Census, Hosea Sprague's 
2 CONC household consisted of 1 male 0-10, 1 male to 26, 1 male to 45, 1 male 
2 CONC greater than 45 (five males), 3 females to 10, 1 female to 26, 1 female 
2 CONC to 45 and 1 female greater than 45 (six females). Of these Hosea and 
2 CONC Chloe are two and Phebe might be one. I do not know who the others are.
2 CONT By the 1830 census there were only two males (15-20 & 50-60) and four 
2 CONC females ( 1 5-10, 2 10-15 & 1 50-60). Again, I am not sure who all of 
2 CONC these are.
2 CONT By 1840, Hosea was living alone and by 1850 he was living with his 
2 CONC daughter, Phebe (Sprague) Matley.
2 CONT Between 1816 and 1820 Hosea and his family had moved from Rhode Island to 
2 CONC near Lancaster, Graham Township, Jefferson County, Indiana. He continued 
2 CONC to show up in the Jefferson County census through 1850, his wife was not 
2 CONC in the 1840 or 1850 census. In 1850, he was living with his daughter 
2 CONC Phebe, her children and her husband, William matley. He owned several 
2 CONC plots of land (40, 40, and 80 acres). He also was deeded an additional 
2 CONC 160 acres from the estate of Phebe Sprague (she was probably his sister, 
2 CONC although she did not show up in the census records). I have not found 
2 CONC either a Probate record for Hosea Sprague in Jefferson County, Indiana or 
2 CONC records showing the sale of all of his land (this is not unusual).
2 CONT In the 1820 Jefferson County, Indiana census Hosea and Chloe had 1 male 
2 CONC 0-10, 1 male 16-18, 1 male 26-45 and 1 male > 45 (i.e., 4 "dependent 
2 CONC males") and 3 females 0-10, 1 female 16-26, 1 female 26-45 and 1 female 
2 CONC >45 (e.e. 5 "dependent females"). In the 1830 census he was down to 1
