    Married:
    This marriage is confusing. According to the 1880 Federal Census he is married to Margarette Rebecca Brown (wid of Samuel Turner). Her children by her previous marriage are named as being step-children in the census. Earlier census records (1850-1870) show him married to Mary A. R. They have 6 children, the youngest born in 1852. So that would put his marriage to Mary A. R. ca 1850 and his marriage to Magarette Rebecca sometime after 1875.
