1825 BIRTH of Joseph Hague: calculated from 1860 census of, Guernsey, Ohio: Joseph, 35 years old."
CENSUS: 1830, Ohio, Guernsey, Wills Twp. p 424:
"JOHN Hage, 1 m 20-30, 1 m 5-10 (Joseph?); 1 f 20-30, 1 m 70-80." (Hannah's father, James Foreacres?)
CENSUS: 1840, Ohio, Guernsey, Millwood Twp. p 331.
"JOHN Hague 40-50, 1 f 40-50; (Hannah [Foreacre]Hague
(6 children)
l m under 5,
2 m 5-10,
1 m 15-20; (Joseph?)
1 f 10-15,
1 f 15-20" (Emiline?)
This census seems consistent with 1830 census listed above.
(There is a Charles McQuade family 10 families away.)
1840, Ohio, Guernsey, Wills Twp. p 313.
"JOHN (could be JEHU) Hage 30-40, l f 30-40.
(4 children) l m 15-20, (Joseph?)
2 f 10-15,
1 f 15-20." (Emiline?)
(John and James Foraker are listed 12 families away.)
1840, Ohio, Guernsey, Richland Twp. p 412.
" JEHU Hague 30-40, l f 30-40.
(4 children) l m 15-20, (Joseph?)
2 f 10-15,
1 f 15-20." (Emiline?)
The above RICHLAND TWP "Hague" IS A REPEAT OF THE WILLS TWP "Hague" in
the number and ages of children!
I see no similarity to the Hague "neighbors" in Richland and Wills Twp.
However there is a DAVID WOLFORD in Millwood Twp who is also listed
in Richland Twp. (He is listed with 2 less children in the latter.)
It appears that JEHU HAGUE lived in a corner of a township and was
visited by three census takers in the year 1840. However, the question
remains whether there were 4 or 6 children in Jehu's family?
Another real possibility is that Jehu lived with another woman, besides
Hannah.
MARRIAGE: IGI shows "Joseph md Rachel Ann Canary 16 Sep 1847, Guernsey Co, Ohio."
CENSUS: 1850, Ohio, Guernsey, Wright Twp. p 318b:
"John Hauge, 48 M, 1300, PA
Hannah " 50 F, O Cannot read or write
Emiline " 23 F, O
(I think they are still in the same location. Wills Twp was divided into
Wills and Wright, I think.)
CENSUS: 1850, Jackson?, Morgan Co. p 283 (Jackson became Noble Co)

DEATH-FATHER-SPOUSE-CHILDREN-BIOGRAPHY: Joan Van Scoyoc letter
of Oct 8, 1983 in poss of Carol Minson: "The story goes that the Hagues
and others had joined a wagon train going to Oregon. They got as far as
north MO where they were hit by a plague. . apparently Joseph and Rachel
died. Louis was taken by my gr grandfather Hays--it is said that he was
9 years old, so this would have been in 1864. An older brother, George,
was to have gone on to Oregon with the wagons, and the two younger
brothers, that would be Evil and Francis, went back to Ohio. No mention
was made of the girls."
