- The children shown in this marriage -- G.W. and Elijah Muncy are not proven but based on circumstantial evidence.
Jesse Muncy m. Sarah Riley on 1 March 1809 in Harrison County, West Virginia (WV Marriages Index 1785-1971)
Jesse Muncy is listed in the 1810 census of Harrison County, WV. His age is about right for his first marriage. 1 male <10; 2 males 16-25; 1 female 16-25. Since assumed son Elijah was born in 1810, he would be listed in the <10 category so that checks out. Age ranges for both Jesse and Sarah are correct. But who is the additional male age 16-25? A worker? A cousin? A brother?
The 1820 census for Wood County (county formed from Harrison) does not list Jesse Muncy. Shown is Sary (Sarah?) Muncy in the correct age grouping of 26-45. Also listed is one male (<10), and that corresponds to the 1812 birthdate for son George W. Muncy. No males is listed in the age grouping for Elijah but we know from the 1810 census that a male should be in that age group. Perhaps he is living with a relative, or wasn't counted.
Unproven. Needs additional evidence, but there are no other known Muncys in the area during this period. Riley (Sarah's maiden name) is a common name in GW Muncy's descendants.
