David Ames married Nancy Davis.

We begin with David Ames in 1850 Ross, Lake, Indiana born in OH in the household of William N Sykes 41, David Ames 30, Nancy Ames 30, Cynthia Ames 18, John Ames 5, George Ames 3, Sarah F Ames 7. This census may be in error on the age of Sarah. (Cynthia raises a question as to her identity. Maybe a sister to David? Or, an error on the age.)

The next record we fine is 1856 Allamakee, Iowa David Ames 37, Nancy Ames 40, Abitha J Ames 14 (not listed in 1850 so maybe she is Cynthia by another name and age), John M Ames 12, George W Ames 10, Sarah F Ames 10, Eliza A Ames 8, Mary E Ames 5. In this record we discover that George & Sarah are twins.

The family moves on to 1857 Township 103, Freeborn, Minnesota we find David Ames 40 b. OH, Nancy Ames 42 b. NC Lovice (Looking at the image I believe this to be Louisa) Jane Ames 15 b. IN, John Marion Ames 13 b. IN, George W Ames 12 1847 b. IN, Sarah Frances Ames 12 b. IN, Eliza Ann Ames 9 b. IN, Mary Elizabeth Ames 6 b. IL, Nancy Emeline Ames 1 b. IA.

The family remains in 1860 Manchester, Freeborn, Minnesota David Ames 41, Nancy Ames 43, Lovice J Ames 17, John M Ames 15, George W Ames 13, Sarah F Ames 13, Eliza Ames 11, Nancy E Ames 4, Mary E Ames 9.
