[edit] Marriage
Samuel married Catherine Willitt (c1800-aft1850) on March 4, 1819, at Christ's Presbyterian Church in South Hempstead.
[edit] 1820 Census
In 1820, Samuel was listed as a head of household in South Hempstead, New York. The household consisted of Samuel and his wife, as well as his oldest daughter Sarah Eldert (c1819-aft1850). The household was located immediately next door to his brother's wife's family (the Hultsz family). Samuel's parents were on the same page of the census, a few households below.
[edit] 1830 Census
By 1830, Samuel resided with 5 more children in addition to Sarah, two boys born between 1820 and 1825, and 3 girls born between 1825 and 1830. The family still resided in South Hempstead. The two boys were Israel Eldert (c1823-aft1850) and Willet Eldert (c1821-aft1850). One of the girls was likely Sarah Elizabeth Eldert (c1827-?), but the names of the other two are yet unknown. The household was located immediately next door to his widowed mother Mary Birdsall (bef1767-aft1830).
[edit] 1840 Census
In 1840, Samuel was listed as a head of household in Hempstead, New York. The household consisted of Samuel and his wife, as well as two sons Willet Eldert (c1821-aft1850) and Samuel Eldert (c1834-?) and seven girls. The youngest three girls were Samuel's daughters Ann Eldert (c1832-?), Mary Eldert (c1837-?) and Martha Eldert (c1839-?). There were also two girls born in the early 1820s and two girls born in the late 1820s. At least one of the older girls was probably not a daughter of Samuel, as she was not listed in the 1830 census. However, Israel was probably accidentally marked as a female, as he is conspicuously missing from the enumeration. The other girl born in the early 1820s must have been born in 1825 if she is a daughter, as she was reported as being born in the late 1820s in the 1830 census. The household was located immediately next door to his widowed mother Mary Birdsall (bef1767-aft1830).
