Lafons in Orange County, Indiana circa 1850

I'm researching the Lafon's in Orange County, Indiana, circa 1850. In the 1850 Census in Stamper's Creek Township, living in the home of a John & Sally Dillard are William Lafon; age 24; Ellen Lafon, age 22; and Nicholas Lafon; age 19; all born in Kentucky. My ancestors left Orange County in April of 1851 and settled in Andrew County, and next door Buchanan County, Missouri. A William Lafon married a Lydia Sager in Buchanan County, Missouri in September of 1856, and a Mary E. Lafon married my GG Uncle Isiah Allen Smith in Orange County in Sep of 1850; their children were born in Missouri from 1851-1866. Also a Nicholas Lafon bought land from my GGG GF Jarvis Smith in Andrew County, Missouri in 1873. I believe that William, Ellen (possibly Mary Ellen) and Nicholas are all siblings and hail from Woodford County, Kentucky. I would like to hear from anyone that has any information on these individuals to prove or disprove my theory. Thanks, Peter
