Note:
The following person has been included in the family of Joseph Meek. However,
Daniel was not listed with Joseph in the 1850 census or any other census. While
he did live in Prairie Township in 1870, age 27, there is little to tie him to Joseph.
In 1860 there was also living in Prairie Twonship a Richard Meek age 42 and Samuel
Meek age 49. Samuel had a son Daniel age 17. Samuel was also listed in the 1880 census.
Thus it seems unlikely that Damiel was a son of Joseph.
