Note 1:

The 1830 census of Boone Co., IN on page 203 lists John Lane age 30-40 with five sons and two daughters. He is listed next to Thomas Standage, father of his wife Charity. The 1840 census of Boone Co., IN also lists John Lane, age 40-50. When compared with the ages in the 1850 census two earlier censuses indicate that these are the same family. They also indicate that there was an unknown son who born past 1840.

The 1850 census of Howard Co., IN list John and Charity with sons Jesse and Isaac. Living in the next two dwelling are sons Thomas, John and Edward. Also living in Howard County is James Lane, age 31 (born about 1819). This would be the correct age for Charity’s first born and the age fits the census. In 1860 two of his children resided with Porter Vandewark in Grundy Co., IA which adjoined Dallas County where John T. Lane Resided. However, there is no evidence that this person was related to John Lane and Charity.

The 1830 census of Boone Co., KY lists Jesse Lane, age 70-80. He lived in the vicinity of John Lane as well as several other younger Lane families. There is no evidence of any connection between these families.
