Joseph DeWitt1

b. 1842
Father-Possible*William DeWitt1 b. 1807, d. b Jun 1880
Mother-Possible*Eliza Ann Gee1 b. 1821
Birth*1842Joseph DeWitt was born about 1842 in Ohio.1 
(Son) Relationship NoteWe believe that either William DeWitt or Eliza Ann (Gee) Calhoun DeWitt was Joseph's biological parent, and that the other was his stepparent. Joseph was born about four years before William and Eliza Ann married. While we have found no evidence that William was married before his marriage to Eliza Ann, that doesn't mean he wasn't. And, although we do know that Eliza Ann was married to Jacob Calhoun in 1840, we don't know if they had any children. Additionally, it was not uncommon for the head of the household's surname to be given, by census takers, to all of the children in his household, whether a child was his biological or step child. We would very much appreciate hearing from anyone who can tell us more about Joseph's parentage, and also what happened to him after his enumeration on the 1850 census.1 
(Son) Census US 18504 September 1850Joseph was enumerated on the 1850 census taken on 4 September 1850 in the household of his parents in Salem, Meigs County, Ohio. He was 8 years old.1

Sibyl DeWitt1

Father*William DeWitt1 b. 1807, d. b Jun 1880
Mother*Eliza Ann Gee1 b. 1821
Birth*December 1853Sibyl DeWitt was born in December 1853 in Jefferson County, Iowa.1,2,3

Census US 1880*11 June 1880Sibyl DeWitt was enumerated on the 1880 census taken on 11 June 1880 in Des Moines, Jefferson County, Iowa. She was 25 years of age, single, and worked as a school teacher. She lived as a boarder in the household of Simon C. and Martha J. Fry.7 
Marriage*20 July 1880She married Francis A. Byers, son of Jacob Byers and Mary Fleming, on 20 July 1880 in Jefferson County, Iowa.1 
Illness*1892Sibyl and Francis were probably living with their children near Albright, Sarpy County, Nebraska, when their family was hit by diphtheria in 1892. Three of their young children had died before the middle of June when an Omaha newspaper reported the death of their 9-year-old daughter, Codo Byers, on June 15 and mentioned that she was the third death from the disease in her family. There was concern as additional cases of diphtheria were being reported and the city of Omaha was taking steps they hoped would keep the disease from becoming an epidemic. The disease was reported to have been the most prevalent at Albright where seven new cases had been reported the day before the news article was published. From our review of the 1892 deaths and burials in the Laurel Hill Cemetery, we believe the other two deaths, before Codo's, in the Byers family from diphtheria that year were her siblings, Jessie C. Byers and Charley Byers.8,9,10,11 
Census US 1900*9 June 1900Sibyl and Francis A. Byers were enumerated on the 1900 census taken on 9 June 1900 in Bellevue, Sarpy County, Nebraska.

They rented their house, had been married for 20 years, and Sibyl had given birth to eight children, four of whom were living. None, however, were enumerated with their parents in 1900. Their eldest son, Guy, was in the next household above his parents on the same census page. He was 19 years old and recorded as a servant working as a farm laborer in the household of L. F. and Lida Connor. The couple's other three surviving children, James O., George A. and Frank J., we've not yet identified on the 1900 census.3 
Census US 1910*26 April 1910Sibyl and Francis A. Byers were enumerated on the 1910 census taken on 26 April 1910 in Highland, Sarpy County, Nebraska. Francis, whose middle initial was recorded as H. by the census taker, was 62 years of age and worked for wages as a general carpenter, and Sibyl was 56 years of age and did not work outside the home. They both were able to read and write, owned their house with a mortgage, had been married for 29 years, the first marriage for each, and Sibyl had given birth to seven children, four of whom were living. Two of their children were enumerated with their parents in 1910. George was 19 years old, able to read and write, had no occupation, and had attended school within the census year. Frank J. was 18 years old, able to read and write, and worked for wages as a house painter.12

Francis was 71 years of age and worked as a carpenter on his own account, and Sibyl was 66 years of age and not working outside the home. They owned their house with a mortgage, and their son, George, was enumerated with them. He was 29 years of age and worked for wages as a general carpenter.13

William DeWitt1

b. 1807, d. before June 1880
Birth*1807William DeWitt was born about 1807, probably in Pennsylvania.2,3,4 
Relationship Note*We believe that either William DeWitt or Eliza Ann (Gee) Calhoun DeWitt was Joseph DeWitt's biological parent, and that the other was his stepparent. Joseph was born about four years before William and Eliza Ann married. While we have found no evidence that William was married before his marriage to Eliza Ann, that doesn't mean he wasn't. And, although we do know that Eliza Ann was married to Jacob Calhoun in 1840, we don't know if they had any children. Additionally, it was not uncommon for the head of the household's surname to be given, by census takers, to all of the children in his household, whether a child was his biological or step child. We would very much appreciate hearing from anyone who can tell us more about Joseph's parentage, and also what happened to him after his enumeration on the 1850 census.5 
Marriage*31 March 1846He married, as her second husband, Eliza Ann (Gee) Calhoun on 31 March 1846 in Meigs County, Ohio. They were married by a Justice of the Peace.1,6 
Census US 1850*4 September 1850Ann and William DeWitt were enumerated on the 1850 census taken on 4 September 1850 in Salem, Meigs County, Ohio. William was 42 years of age and a farmer with real estate valued at $600, and Eliza Ann was 30 years of age. Three children were enumerated with them in 1850. Joseph was 8 years old, Nancy was age 3, and baby Eliza was one year old.5 
Census State IA 1856*1856Ann and William DeWitt were listed on the Iowa State census for 1856 in Locust Grove, Jefferson County, Iowa. William was 49 years of age and a farmer, and Eliza was 37 years of age. Five children were listed with the couple in 1856. Nancy J. was 10 years old; Elisha and Francis M. were ages 8 and 6 years, respectively; Phoebe was age 2; and William H. was an infant.7 
Census US 1860*7 July 1860Eliza Ann and William DeWitt were enumerated on the 1860 census taken on 7 July 1860 in Locust Grove, Jefferson County, Ohio. William was 53 years of age and a farmer with real estate valued at $50 and a personal estate valued at $100, and Eliza Ann was 39 years of age. Seven children were enumerated with them in 1860. Nancy J., Clark, Francis and Sibyl were ages 13, 12, 9 and 6 years, respectively, and had all attended school within the census year; Henry and Orlando were ages 4 and 2 years, respectively; and baby Augusta was two months old.8 
Census US 1870*30 June 1870Ann and William DeWitt were enumerated on the 1870 census taken on 30 June 1870 in Batavia, Jefferson County, Iowa. William was 63 years of age, worked as a day laborer and had real estate valued at $200. and Ann was 49 years of age and keeping house. Five children were enumerated with them in 1870. Clark and Francis were ages 21 and 18 years, respectively, and worked as farm laborers; Sibyl was 16 years old and going to school; and Henry and Orlando were ages 14 and 12 years, respectively.9 
Death*before June 1880He died before June 1880, probably in his mid to late 60s or early 70s. When the 1880 census was taken, his wife was enumerated as a widow and the head of her household in Jefferson County, Iowa.10
