If we list Christian, who was 15 in 1810 in the 16-26 group. and assume
that the census taker made a mistake in the sex of one child[ren] than
the n\Dnber in the various groups shown in the f~ record check with the
1810 census.

(d) Neither Audolph or George A. appear on the assessment list in 1828 which is the next record available.
(e) Family records show our George A. House to have been born in 1800.
He was married in 1822 in Cherry Valley, Ostego County New York. If the
George A. House in Oppenheimis the same, it appears he purchased land
from his Father when he was 21 years old (1821) Married when he was 22
(1822) and had a son Harvey 1823 while he was still in Oppenheim since
he paid taxes in Oppenheim in 1824. In 1825 his second son was born in
Clymer Hill, Chautauqa County,New York, so he must of moved from
Oppenheim to Clymer Hill between 1824-1825.

County New York George A. had brothers with the same names, Family

were brothers to George Ash. House.
