- 1850 Census, Harrison Co, Virginia (now West Virginia), enumerated on Jul 5 1850:
Robert Boyce, 45, farmer; Rebecca, 42; Ezekiel, 18; John, 16; Christian, 14; Robert, 12; David, 10; Nancy, 8; Cynthia, 6.
(Note: Rebecca's stated age of 42 would put her birth in about 1808, which would have made her only 11 at the time of her first marriage, in 1819. More likely is the 1801 birth date derived from her age 75 at the time of her 1876 death. It is noted, however, that her stated age of 75 in the 1870 Census would put her birth in about 1795, which is considered unlikely.)
