    • Census: Between 1790 and 1810

    Notes:

    Census:
    In trying to confirm this family I have found the following census records:

    1790 in Exeter, Berks Co., PA
    John Neukirk: Free White Males 16 and over, 2; Free White Males under 16, 1; Free White Females, 6

    1800 in Exeter, Berks Co., PA
    John Neykirk: Free White Males (FWM) under 10, 1; FWM 10 thru 15, 1; FWM 45 and over, 1. Free White Females (FWF) 10 thru 15, 2; FWF 16 thru 25, 2; FWF 45 and over, 1.

    John Neykirk, Jr.: Free White Males (FWM) 16 thru 25, 1. Free White Females (FWF) 16 thru 25, 1.

    1810 in Wythe Co., VA
    John Newchurch: Free White Males (FWM) under 10, 3; FWM 10 thru 15, 2; FWM 16 thru 25, 2; 45 and over, 1. Free White Females (FWF) under 10, 2; FWF 26 thru 44, 1.

    None of the numbers seems to exactly fit the family as portrayed in the Chris Lewis Family File but the places, names and even the numbers are pretty close.
