FOLLOWUP
Mahlon may have been born in Grayson Count, Virgina, and may have died in 1862.
The 1850 US Census places Mahlon on the second line (the "spouse" line) instead of as head-of-household. Does this have some meaning, or is it just an enumerator choice? [census-us-1850-ps-oh-clinton-jefferson-243b]
The 1850 US Census notes that Mahlon and his son Alvah were farming adjacent land after Alvah married. Did Mahlon split off part of his farm? [census-us-1850-ps-oh-clinton-jefferson-243b]
