SPARKS FAMILIES IN INDIANA -- 1850 CENSUS
by Paul E. Sparks
Indiana, the sixth state to be admitted to the Union (the nineteenth, if the original thirteen states are included), gained statehood in 1816. Approximately 75,000 persons then lived in the thirteen existing counties scattered along the Ohio River from Dearborn County in the east to Posey County in the west. In the main, these inhabitants had come from neighboring Kentucky, and from Virginia and the Carolinas, to settle in the hilly lands adjacent to the Ohio River.
The next three decades in the history of Indiana stagger the imagination! Westward down the Ohio by flatboat, and northward through Kentucky by the Wilderness Road, the migrating families poured into the state through the gateways at Louisville and Madison. The Northwestern Indians gave ground slowly, granting cession after cession. by the middle 1830's, the Indians had been driven from the state and the Cumberland Road (National Pike) had been completed from Cumberland, Maryland, to Indianapolis. On this road, throngs of families from the east jostled each other to claim the flat, fertile land of central and northern Indiana. by 1850, the population of Indiana was almost a million persons (actually 988,416 according to the 1850 Federal census)! All but one (Newton County) of Indiana's ninety-two counties had been formed.
Persons named SPARKS had helped to swell this migrating horde. In 1820, twenty-eight Sparks families lived in Indiana. by 1830, there were fifty-seven Sparks families living there. (See The Sparks Quarterly, Whole No. 23, September, 1958, pp. 326-330.) In 1850, according to the Federal census, there were 631 persons named Sparks living in 46 counties in Indiana.
The reader is reminded that on the 1850 census, each family group represented a household and that besides the parents and children, a household might have include relatives and hired hands. In each instance where a person named Sparks appears on the census, the entire household of which he was a member is given. In the following list, the page number refers to the page in the volume containing the particular county named. The two numbers given below the page number are those supplied by the census taker. The first was the house number, the second was the family number. These two numbers are often the same, but when two families lived in the same house the sequences would thereafter be different. These numbers are useful to the genealogist because one can frequently judge how near one family lived to another by comparing the numbers.

| In the June 1960 issue of the Quarterly, Whole No. 30, p. 485, we published a record of the Sparks families as found on the 1850 census of Vermillion County, Indiana. We listed the family of Joseph Sparks (age 24) of Clinton Township and the family of Daniel Sparks (age 48) of Highland Township. We missed a Sparks family living in Lost Creek Township, as recorded on October 1, 1850. We are grateful to Mrs. Hobart Darling for copying this record for us. The family and household are both numbered eleven. The age, sex, and place of birth is given for each member of the household: | ||||||

||||||
(Editor's Note: In June 1959, we began the publication of the census data for persons named SPARKS who were listed on the 1850 census of Indiana. It was a tremendous task to scan the thousands of pages of this census and, as might be expected, some persons named SPARKS were overlooked. Since that publication was completed, however, portions of that census have been re-scanned from time to time, and corrections and additions have been found and published. One such correction was made on pages 677-678 of the September 1962 issue of the Quarterly, Whole No. 39, which added to the censuses of Marion County, Ripley County, and Wayne County. An addition was made to Rush County data on page 756 of the September 1963 issue of the Quarterly, Whole No. 43. A third addition was made on pages 1959-1960 of the December 1977 issue, Whole No. 100, for Parke County. In 1976, a computerized index of the entire 1850 census of Indiana was published. This index gave the name of the head of the household, the page number of the census, the town or township and the county where the householder lived. We have checked this index against the list of persons named SPARKS which we published in 1959 We now present what we hope is the final correction and/or addition to this census. The race of each of the Sparkses listed below was given as white. |

| Dearborn County, Indiana | ||||||
| The 1850 census of Dearborn County was published on pages 423-424 of the September 1959 issue of the Quarterly, Whole No. 27. Unfortunately, so many corrections and/ or additions are needed on those pages that we have decided to re-publish the entire census of that county. Our members are requested to make the appropriate notation on pages 423-424 to refer the reader to the corrected data, below. | ||||||
