From the foregoing census record, the following deductions may be made regarding Henrietta and her family. She was born in NJ in about 1802. Assuming that John Ogden is her son, she was probably married, perhaps in PA or NJ, in about 1820-22. Assuming that Felix, Rebecca, James and Cornelia are Henrietta’s children, she probably moved from NJ to IL between 1836 and 1850, and from IL to MO between 1844 and 1847. It is assumed that Pamela Ogden is her daughter-in-law, rather than her daughter, because Pamela was born in MO in 1832. Henry may well be the son of John and Pamela.

The names and ages match pretty well, but the birth states are mostly inconsistent with the 1850 census. Unfortunately,the
Ancestry.com index page is incorrect so I have not been able to locate the original image. The online version of this census record is very faint and difficult to read.
