Carey H. Gilliland Family - Hamilton Co., OH

Today I sourced the census record for the Carey H. Gilliland family in the 1860 census of Hamilton Co., OH. Carey married my 3rd-great grandaunt Elizabeth W. Lambertson.

The census taker liked to use initials instead of names, as Carey is 'C.H.' and Elizabeth is 'E.W.' on this particular census. Elizabeth died October 11, 1860, so this was the last census record for her. I have not yet tracked Carey and the children beyond the 1860 census to find out where else they appeared.

Carey H. GILLILAND b. ca. 1816 Red Oak, Brown Co., OH.,d. after 1860 census, m. October 15, 1839 Butler Co., OH to Elizabeth W. LAMBERTSON. Elizabeth b. June 7, 1823 Sussex Co., NJ., d. October 11, 1860 Ohio (prob. Hamilton Co.)

Known children of Carey H. and Elizabeth W. (Lambertson) Gilliland :
