In the first two censuses, the children are numbered in order to show their child order.
Note that Chauncey was born after Charles H and before Tamer - that is, between Charles H and Tamer. In 1850, his name is Chauncy, but in the 1860, his name was shown as John. This is an obvious error. ("Chaun" does sound like John so perhaps that contributed some confusion for the census taker).
