      (3) A household headed by David MONASCO is listed in the 1830 census of Walker County, AL. [David's surname is listed as MNASCO in the index to the 1830 census.]

      Listed in David's household are 2 free white males under 5 years of age; 1 free white males between 5 and 10 years of age; 1 free white males between 20 and 30 years of age; 1 free white females under 5 years of age; and 1 free white females between 20 and 30 years of age.

      Assuming that David is the free white male listed in the 1830 census as then being between 20 and 30 years of age, he would have been born between 1800 and 1810, according to the 1830 census.

      Assuming that David's wife is the free white female listed in the 1830 census as then being between 20 and 30 years of age, she would have been born between 1800 and 1810, according to the 1830 census.

      Assuming that the other persons in David's household are children of David and/or his wife, those children would have consisted of three sons (two of which sons would have been born between 1825 and 1830, and one of which sons would have been born between 1820 and 1825, according to the 1830 census) and one daughter (which daughter would have been born between 1825 and 1830, according to the 1830 census).

      (4) A household headed by David MONASCO is listed in the 1840 census of Fayette County, AL, next to a household headed by Edmund HOPSON. [David's surname is listed as MONASES in the index to the 1840 census.]

      Listed in David's household are 2 free white males under 5 years of age; 2 free white males between 5 and 10 years of age; 2 free white males between 10 and 15 years of age; 1 free white male between 15 and 20 years of age; 1 free white male between 30 and 40 years of age; 1 free white female under 5 years of age; 1 free white female between 5 and 10 years of age; 1 free white female between 10 and 15 years of age;
      1 free white female between 20 and 30 years of age; and 1 free white female between 30 and 40 years of age.

      Assuming that David is the free white male listed in the 1840 census as then being between 30 and 40 years of age, he would have been born between 1800 and 1810, according to the 1840 census.

      Assuming that David's wife is the free white female listed in the 1840 census as then being between 30 and 40 years of age, she would have been born between 1800 and 1810, according to the 1840 census.

      The free white female listed in the 1840 census as then being between 20 and 30 years of age seems to have then been too old to have been a child of David and/or his wife. [That female was born between 1810 and 1820, according to the 1840 census, and David was not married to his first wife until 1823.]

      Assuming that the other persons in David's household are children of David and/or his wife, those children would have consisted of seven sons (two of which sons would have been born between 1835 and 1840, two of which sons would have been born between 1830 and 1835, two of which sons were born between 1825 and 1830, and one of which sons was born between 1820 and 1825, according to the 1840 census) and three daughters (one of which daughters would have been born between 1835 and 1840, one of which daughters would have been born between 1830 and 1835, and one of which daughters would have been born between 1825 and 1830, according to the 1840 census).

      (9) David C. Manasco Southern Claims Commission File <http://wcgs.ala.nu/dcmclaim.htm>:

      Claim #20283

      Submitted to Congress December 1874

      Nature of Claim: 100 Bushels of Corn
      Amount Claimed: $200
      Amount Allowed: $100
      Amount Disallowed: $100

      Nature of Claim: 1000 Pounds of Hay
      Amount Claimed: $20
      Amount Allowed: $10
      Amount Disallowed: $10

      Nature of Claim: 500 Pounds of Bacon

      Nature of Claim: Total
      Amount Claimed: $328
      Amount Allowed: $218
      Amount Disallowed: $110

      The claimant is a farmer 72 years of age. During the war, he resided in Winston County, Alabama. The proof that he remained loyal to the Union Cause is unusually full and satisfactory. In August 1862 he went to Decatur, then in Federal possession and applied to join the Union Army but was rejected on account of his age. He was in the federal camps 7 weeks when he obtained a pass from Gen. Buell and returned to his home. In May 1864 he was arrested by the Confederates charged with being a member of the Union league and kept under arrest 41 days. His property was taken by the Confederates in 1862, 1863, 1864, and 1865 and no payment made. From the beginning to the close of the war he was repeatedly threatened. Confederate officers threatened to take his life and to burn and destroy all his property. He aided Union men into the federal lines, forty one at one time. He had two sons a step-son and other kindred in the Confederate Army, yet there is no doubt but his sympathies were constantly with the Federal cause.

      The property was taken March 26, 1865 by soldiers of Gen. Wilson?s Cavalry. Receipts were given for all the property charged. The first two items in one receipt which is produced the other receipt has been lost. Values were not stated in receipts. In March 1865 all kinds of supplies bore a very high price. We recommend payment of $218. . . .
