The 1850 Federal Census for District 72, Pulaski County, Missouri (M432-411, Page 95, Enumerated 10 October 1850) lists the following family:

Henry HARDERSON 23 y/o born in Missouri
Rebecca C. HARDERSON 21 y/o born in Tennessee
Mary Ann HARDERSON 1 y/o born in Missouri

QUESTION: Is this family KNOWN to be a HARDERSON(EN)Family, or is the listing a misspelling for HARDESTER/HARDISTER?

I suspect that this is Henry HARDESTER/HARDESTER who married a (Rebecca) Caroline THOMPSON. She possibly being the unproven daughter of Martin H. THOMPSON (whose family is listed on page 96 of the same census - 11 houses apart).

Comments? Thanks! Mike
