Note: Martha Ann Osborn b 1815 married George C. Miller in 1832 - also have Patsy Ann Osbourn marrying George G. Miller 13 Sept 1832

Martha A. Miller married Matthew Barkley 8 Aug 1850 Fountain County Indiana

George evidently died before the 1850 census probably about 1843 since their last child is 7

as Martha is living with her mother I assume (which is a plus since her mother is blank on her Death Record
