Census Notes for Esau & Lucy Jane (Family)
1870 census of Rowan Co., Ky, Cristy Creek prec., dated 14 June, lists on p. 15/103, family #89:
Hammond, Esau, 54; Lucy, 37; Robert, 17; David, 15; McClain, Elizabeth, 15; John, 12; James, 9.
(The fact that James age 9 is the youngest child even though Lucy is only 37 suggests that David McClain had died sometime around 1861-1863, and that Lucy and Esau had only recently married.)
1880 census of Rowan Co., Ky, Morehead prec., enumerated 1 June, lists on p.15 as family #129:
Hammon, Esaw, 66, Va NC NC; Lucy, 48, Ky Ky Ky; Allis, 8, Ky Va Ky.
Family #128 is that of David Hammon (who is listed as only 22, when he was probably really 25).
I have not found either Esau or Lucy in the 1900 census.
