Harry Pagin b. 1857, Indiana; and Ida Winslow

From a blog post dated March 22 I talked about two Henry Pagins in Porter County Indiana. I have new evidence about the second Henry Pagin:

Documentation for Henry Pagin born 1857

1870 Census; Henry Pagin, age 13, son in the household of Samuel and Elizabeth Pagen, South Bend Wards 2 and 3, St. Joseph, Indiana. Samuel was 41 years old, which puts his birth around 1829.

1880 Census, Harry Pagin [note the name change from Henry to Harry], age 23 son in household of Samuel and Elizabeth Pagen. This is the same person as Henry Pagin--family members are the same.

Indiana Marriage Collection: Harry Pagin married Ida Winslow; December 24, 1888, in Porter County, Indiana.

1900 Census; Harry Pagin, Age 43; Chicago Ward 32, Cook, Illinois; head of household. Wife is Ida Pagin; married 11 years; 0 children. Also in household are Mary Underwood, sister, age 31, and Eugene Underwood, nephew, age 3. And a servant, Hilda Swensen

1910 Census; Harry Pagin, age 52, Washington, Porter, Indiana; Ida Pagin, wife; married 22 years; doesn't list if there were children born to Ida.

1920 Census; Harry Pagin, age 62; Center, Porter, Indiana, Ida Pagin, wife, age 54; Ann Winslow, age 82, mother-in-law.

Find A Grave: Harry Pagin; 1857 to 1927; Valparaiso, Porter, Indiana

Familysearch.org Family Tree lists Henry Pagin, born 1833 son of James Joseph Pagan and Susannah Fosher. Siblings to Henry Pagin include Samuel Pagin, born 1828. Samuel is the right age to be the father of Harry Pagin, born 1857.

Conclusion

Harry/Henry Pagin, b. 1857; lived in Porter County is nephew of Henry Pagin, born 1833, who also lived in Porter County at one point.

Ida M. Day and Henry Pagin

Found a spouse for Ida M. Day.  Documentation is as follows:

Indiana Marriage Records:
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/XXNB-CVM
Henry Pagin, born LaPorte, Indiana; 3rd marriage; Father: Joseph Pagin; Mother: Susannah Fisher
Ida M. Day, born Indiana; father: Reason Day; mother: Eliza Appleton
Marriage: Sullivan County, Indiana, August 8, 1885

Civil War Pension Index:
Ida M. Day applied to receive pension of Henry Pagin. He was at Lt. C, in the MO Infantry.
He applied for pension as an invalid on March 21, 1879; Eliza applied for pension as a widow on Feb 11, 1899

Conflicting Information:

A family tree on Ancestry that had Ida M. Day married to Henry Pagan. http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/9113789/person/397661159 These records indicate that they lived in Valparaiso, Porter, Indiana. I followed the census records forward and found that Henry and Ida Pagin living in Porter County. In the 1920 census, he was still living. They also had her mother living with them. Her name was Ann Winslow.

Further, Find A Grave has a picture of a headstone for "Ida W Pagin in Porter County, Indiana.

Daughter, Ida Pagin (Suthards) was born in Missouri in 1861. Henry was in the Missouri Infantry. Father list is Henry Pagin; mother listed is Eliza Ann Carther

* Possible 3rd Wife: Martha Carter. In the 1860 and 1870 Census records, Henry's wife is Mattie. Mattie is a common nickname for Martha

Possible Conclusions 3/22/2012:

1. There are two different Henry Pagins who lived in Porter County, Indiana. One was born about 1859 and the other was born about 1832 in Ohio. The Henry Pagin of 1832 is the husband of Ida M. Day.

2. Most likely Ida M. Day (dau of Reason and Eliza Jane) never lived in Porter, Indiana

Questions:
* Is Ida M. Day's middle name Martha and she goes by Mattie to prevent confusion with his daughter?
* Who is Mattie Pagan in 1860 and 1870 census?
* Who is the Henry Pagin who married Ida M. Day in 1885?
* Is this an old directory and Mattie's name has not been removed?
* Is Ida M. Day Pagin living in Missouri or Indiana in 1886-1887?


Note: in 1900 Census, Ida (Pagin) Suthards (married Own Suthards in 1892) was living in home of Leila Carter Blake. (Kansas City, MO)
* Was Ida M. Day Pagin dead or living in separate household?
