    Medical Condition From 1865  [8, 12] 
    rheumatism and pleurisy 
    • Per the 1880 Census, claimed rheumatism but was still a carpenter and did not claim to be totally disabled due to the condition.

      By the time of the 1890 Census Veteran Schedule, he had been badly lame from sciatic rheumatism for 7 years, so the rheumatism progressed quite a bit.

      Also on the 1890 Veteran Schedule he was said to have suffered from pleurisy on the left side for 26 years (since the war).

    • Elizabeth stated that she'd given birth to 10 children, of whom 6 were yet living.

      Also in this household:

      Edward Haines, grandson, 23 years old, born in OH (b.1877)
      Would almost have to be the child of Sarah Nancy Matticks (b.1854). We know almost nothing about her, but she is the only child that the dates work out for, if Edward is a biological grandson.

      Vivian Matticks, granddaughter, 11 years old, born in OH
      Would likely be Charles' daughter, except the Census shows Charles as single, neither married nor widowed
