2. Children's names & birth dates are from the 1850 Census of "John Barnd" of Milford, Bucks Co., Pa. In the 1830 Census, John Barndt is listed in Milford, Bucks Co. but names of family members were not given in 1830, so we have to guess. Here we see one male child age 0-5 (Philip) and two age 5-10 (John and Levi). There is also 1 female age 0-5 (Catherine, Jr.) one aged 5-10 and two aged 10-20. It is likely these three older daughters had married and moved away (or died) before the 1850 Census. Also listed is one female 30-40 (wife Catherine). I also found what I believe to be the correct 1820 Census and 1800 Census, although they appear to be of little use since I cannot confirm they are for the correct John Barndt. The 1800 could be John's father John.
   
3. In the 1860 Census, Catherine is listed as a widow living with her son Philip. She is still living with him in the 1870 Census. In the 1870 Census George is listed as a laborer.
