The 1850 Census shows E. Armstrong (age 23, born in Kentucky) living in Shelby County, Kentucky with wife S. (age 18) and daughter M. A. (age 1). It appears during the ensuing decade, this couple had two more children, sons Milton and Allen, and that the wife passed away sometime after the birth of Allen. Ancestry public trees indicate Eppy marred Eliza Shackleford (spelling varies) in Kentucky in 1858. The 1860 Census shows E. H. Armstrong (age 33, born in Kentucky) living in Marion Township, Hendricks County, Indiana with wife Eliza J. (age 21) and children Mary A. (age 10), Milton (age 7), Allen (age 5), William (age 1) and Elizabeth (age 4 months). The age gap between Allen and William is the main basis for the suggestion that Milton and Allen were children of his first wife. The 1870 Census shows Hammond Armstrong (age 42) living in Union Township in Hendricks County with wife Eliza (age 29) and children Mary (age 19), Milton (age 17), Allen (age 16), Ellen (age 9), Anna (age 8), John (age 6), James (age 5), George (age 4) and Lorenzo (age 2). The 1880 Census shows Eppy H. Armstrong (age 52) living in Union Township with wife Eliza (age 46) and children William (age 20), Elizabeth E. (age 18), Nannie B. (age 16), John (age 16), James (age 14), George (age 12), Alonzo (age 11), Ezzie L. (age 8), Millie (age 6) and Thomas (age 3).
