Notes

One source shows that Aaron was born in New Jersey.

I found this tidbit on the Internet:

Swayzee, Aaron C. (1817-1878) Born in Fairfield County, Ohio, January 8, 1817. Member of Indiana state house of representatives, 1877. Died in Bowling Green, Ky., April 12, 1878.

1850 Census - Living in Grant Co., IN, with wife Minerva A. (29), Louisa J. (6), Marietta E. (3), and James W. (7/12). Aaron was born in Ohio, all others born in Indiana.

Listed as "A. C. Swayzee". This seemed to be the spelling for all the Sweezey's from Grant Co., IN.

1860 Census - Living in Grant Co., IN (43), with wife Maria A. (39), and children: Louisa J. (17), Mary E. (13), James W. (10), and Frank C. (3). Aaron born in Ohio, everyone else in Indiana. Listed as "Aaron C. Swayze". He is a 'Merchant'.

1870 census - Living in Marion, Grant Co., IN (53), with wife Manerva (47) and children: James W. (20), Frank C. (13), and Mark L. (5). Born in Ohio, everyone else in Indiana. He is a "Boot & Shoe Merchant". Listed as "Aaron C. Swayzee".

I found a 15 year old Oliver Swayzee in the 1910 census, living in the Grant County Orphans Home. He was born in Indiana, was were his parents. I believe Oliver is a grandson of Aaron, by either son James or Frank.
