Commentary on Ebenezer Osborne and his family
Much of what is known about Ebebenezer Osborne-13912's family is based on
secondary and circumstantial evidence. The History of Clermont County, Ohio
provides information on Ebenezer's children Lydia, Matilda, Josiah, and John,
as well as the information that after Ebenezer's death, his widow remarried
to John Charles. However, the age information provided by this history
appears to be way off. Also, there are a number of children connected by
circumstantial evidence that are not mentioned in the history. Below is a
discussion of the evidence relevant for each child.
- Lydia
According to the History of Clermont County, Ohio, Lydia became lost and
disappeared in 1804 at age 11. This would make her birth year about 1793.
- Matilda
Matilda's age is given as 7 at the time of Lydia's disappearance, making
her birth year about 1797. The 1850 Clermont Co., OH census gives her age
as 48, making her birth year about 1802 though. Possibly the census age
is in error, but if the census age is accurate, then it seems unlikely
that Matilda was with Lydia when Lydia became lost, as stated in the
history.
- Josiah
History of Clermont County, Ohio states that Josiah was
a younger brother of Lydia's. The 1830 Clermont Co., OH census shows that
Josiah was born between 1780 and 1790, so was an older brother to Lydia.
- John
History of Clermont County, Ohio states that John was a
younger brother of Lydia's and probably an infant at the time of Lydia's
disappearance. The history also states though that John lived to be an
old man in Jackson Twp. The 1850 census (and later censuses) show that
John Osborn of Jackson Twp was born about 1792, thus being a little older
than Lydia.
- Jesse
Jesse is not mentioned by the History of Clermont County, Ohio, but is
found in the 1870 Clermont Co., OH census living with John. Jesse also
purchased land from John Charles, who Ebenezer's widow Rachel was remarried
to.
- Simeon
Simeon is not mentioned by the History of Clermont County, Ohio.
In the 1820 Clermont Co., OH census though, Simeon is neighbor to Josiah
and in the 1850 Montgomery Co., IN census, Simeon is found living with
Josiah's youngest son Henry H. In the 1860 Montgomery Co., IN census,
Simeon and Jesse are found living fairly close to each other.
