      1830 Census she was listed as Free White Female 30-40 yrs (born 1790-1800) (modest)
      1840 Census she was listed as Free White Female 30-40 yrs (born 1800-1810) (modest)

      1850 Census PA, Mifflin Co.,Armagh Twp., Age 55(ie 1795) - Resided with Daughter Elizabeth & son-in-law Jacob Kepperling & rest of her unmarried children.  Note that James Frederick Strong is not listed with this family, see 1860. His age would have been 12. A child 3 yrs old named Samuel Strong was listed with this family, this child is the Samuel McClunney, age 13 in the 1860 Census. He is probably Elizabeth's son from a previous marriage, as he has same name as Elizabeth's father.

      1870 Censu PA, Centre Co., Greg Twp. Age 74(1794-1795) - residing w/ Son-in-law William Stumph, age 52 and daughter Mary, age 32 and William's son, Jerimiah, age 21.
