Joseph Sindledecker in the 1870 census

In the 1880 census, its pretty clear that most of Nancy and Joseph Sindledecker's kids come from previous marriages. To try to sort that out, I looked up Joseph in the 1870 census. Here he is in Monroe Co., Ohio, just where he should have been to meet Nancy. It gives the name (Ruth) of Joseph's first wife and shows that all of the kids from Rebecca down to Joseph were from his first marriage. That leaves only Berthena and Perly to be accounted for.
