The 1830 Census has John living in Madison Twp., OH. He was age 30-40, with five children. William Sykes (Ref. 11) has Ezra A., James B., & John A. Sikes bom in Novelty, MO. I think that two families may have been merged. William Sykes lists the family members on two pages, the first has Ezra, Jesse, Jonathan, John, & Havilla only listed.
