Coombs, Lewis 28 Jun 1865- 15 Mar 1872 s/o S.H & S.A.
Note: This birth date matches the Samuel H. in the 1860 and 1870 census. This also matches the Samuel H. in the 1840 census 20-30. If this is the same Samuel H. then Ameliann CLEMENTS would have died before the 1860 census. The children in the 1840 census 1M 0-5 and 3F 0-5 would have been 20-25 years of age in the 1860 census. The oldest child is George W. at 8 years in 1860 b. 1852 a big break between children. The wife Sarah is 16 years younger than Samuel H. suggests a second marriage.
