NOTE: This memorial’s family list also names four children — Morrill Ham (1834-1834), John H Ham (1842-1842), Edward L Ham (1843-1862), and William C Ham (1853-1854) — as unsourced Find a Grave contributor entries. These are user-contributed assertions (QUAY 0) and are not asserted as facts here. Edward L Ham’s presence is independently corroborated by the 1850 and 1860 federal censuses (ages 6 and 16, consistent with b. 1843/1844) and his absence from the 1870 household; needs independent verification: no birth, death, or burial record has been located for any of the four.
Children
- Born
- ABT 1838[4] · Dover, N.H.
NOTE: Birth year abt 1838 is derived from the age Thomas J. Ham gave in the 1850 and 1860 censuses (12 and 22, both implying b. 1838); the 1870 census gives his age as 35, implying b. 1835, a three-year drift consistent with ordinary census age-rounding. The earlier two, mutually consistent enumerations are preferred.
- Born
- ABT 1844[5] · Dover, N.H.
NOTE: Edward L. Ham does not appear in the 1870 household of Samuel and Sarah Ham (compare the 1850 and 1860 entries, where he is present); this absence is noted as a lead toward a death or departure between 1860 and 1870 but is not asserted as a fact here — needs independent verification: no death or removal record has been located for Edward L. Ham.
