  Notes	In the 1850 census of Hartland Tp, Huron Co, Ohio, the family of Hiram Pancost and his young (second) wife Huldah included Lewis aged 15. Abel Adams was in Clarksfield, Huron Co, aged 20, a farmer who owned $240 in real estate. He was with the family of George and Mahala Gray, who were probably not related as they did not know Abel's birthplace. In 1860, Lewis Pancost of Hartland was 24, his wife Mary was 28, and their daughter Lewella was 9 months old. No property was listed for him. Abel Adams was listed two dwellings away, with a wife named Susan. He was 30, a farmer and a cooper, with $1500 in real estate and $150 in personal property. Susan was 29, and their two daughters were Ophelia 7 and Lydia A. 4. With them were Alanson Adams aged 19, born in Ohio, probably a brother of Abel, and a Maria Flowers 26, born in NY, with her 1 year old daughter Elnora, possibly related to Abel or Susan. Three dwellings from the Pancosts, on the other side, was Mary's sister Catherine Chandler and her family. A sister of Lewis Pancost was boarding with them. The Adams family has not been spotted in 1870, except for Abel's daughter Lydia, aged 14, who was living in Hartland with William N. and Elizabeth Garner, aged 60 and 59, both born in NY. (In Hartland in 1850, listed next to Hiram Pancost, William and Elizabeth Garner had a daughter Susanna who was 14. Could this have been Susan, mother of Lydia Adams, whose age was 29 in 1860?) In 1880, Abel was shown as Abram. He and Ella had a son, Alta aged 17 and a daughter, Maud, aged 8. In 1880, Walter and Luella Ryerson were in Hartland, their ages 27 and 20. He was a farmer. Their only child Pearl K. was 1 year old, and recorded as a son. In 1900, in the 3rd Ward of Norwalk City, living at 65 Christie Ave, Walter S. Ryerson was 46, employed as a night watchman. He had been married 22 years to Lewello who was "39". The date of her birth was given as Sept 1860, an obvious error since she had been 9 months old in the 1860 census. Their only child, daughter Pearl K., was 21 and a stenographer. Not far away, living alone at 85 Christie Ave, was widow Mary E. Adams. She was a nurse, aged 69. Mrs. Mary Adams of Norwalk had been one of the surviving sisters of Loren W. Rumsey when he died the year before. Bennett S. Pancoast reported hearing from Edna (Pancost) Mowery (Mrs.M.E.) of Elkhart, Indiana, a niece of Lewis/Louis Pancost, that "Louis was a fine looking man", judging from a photo she had of him taken at Bristol, Indiana.
