Samuel Shimp and Matilda Catherine Sutton

Samuel Shimp, 1805 and Matilda Catherine Sutton 1812
Children:
John Henry Shimp, 1837
William R Shimp, 1839

Source #1:
John Henry Shimp, Oct 10, 1805 - Feb 8, 1850 (? I found him on census in 1850 so I dont believe this is correct. It may be a typo. He is no longer living in 1880.)
Matilda Catherine Sutton, 1812

1850 Census:
Samuel Shimp, 45 years, Farmer, NJ (birthplace), 7000 (value of real estate, owned)
Matilda Shimp, 38 years, --, NJ
John H Shimp, 14 years, --, NJ
William R Shimp, 11 years, --, NJ
Interesting Note: Census shows Samuel and Matilda are next door neighbors to Henry and Mary Kline and daughters, Amanda and Hannah. Amanda Kline and John Shimp eventually marry.

1880 Census:
I found Catherine (Matilda) and Washington (?I assume it is William) living with John in 1880. William is single and Catherin is widowed.
See 1880 census here.
