NOTE: Since the U.S. Federal Census records indicate that from1830-1880, James Pratt lived in Parke County where he owned a farm asof c.1835, in what was Liberty Township, it is probably safe to saythat the children were born in Parke County, Indiana. Since c.1835,the three youngest children, Sidney, Hannah, and Myron J., wereprobably born in Liberty Township, but it cannot be ascertained for acertainity where in Parke County Emily was born exactly as yet.
