• Notes

  n the 1830 Census records, they only recorded the Head of Household name. It is assumed that the female that is between the age of 20 - 29 is Margaret as Lemuel and Margaret were married in 1827. It is unknown who the female child is in 1830. By 1840 Lemuel Sever and family, along with Margaret's father have moved to Ripley County, Indiana. At the latest that would have been is when Amanda was born as later records indicate that she was born in Ripley County. Some of the other children were most likely born in Ripley County, but a couple of them could have been born in Kentucky. Lemuel and Margaret had at least 3 sons and 4 daughters as the last one was born after the 1840 Census. Most likely Lemuel was born in Gallatin County, Kentucky as was Margaret. Margaret remarried after Lemuel died and you find them in 1850 in Gallatin County, Kentucky where Amanda meets her husband and Amanda either died in Kentucky before the family moved to Indiana or after they moved to Indiana. It depends on what record you want to go by as to where Lemuel was born. Kentucky or Virginia.
