He probably married about 1835 as his first dau. was born 1836.

Reuben born 1780-90 (1785) and wife the same (who?)
Where was William W., b. 1799?
Where was Jonas M. b. 1807?

Robert born 1800-10 and wife the same.

Looks like this family just getting started. Where did they go?
Also Maryann found Rebecca Nix in Talbot County born in 1760s with two males with her:
Male: b. 1800-10 Male: b. 1820-25 These are probably a son and grandson. She was living with her daughter and John in the 1850 census of Talbot.
