Hi Gerry,

Sorry, but I was unable to find any definite link between the Benjamin Mill
in the 1840 Clarksfield, Huron County, Ohio Census, and your Heinrich (Henry)
Mill in the New Haven, Huron County, Ohio Census of the same year.

I checked our Huron County, Ohio publications and the internet.

In poking around the internet, however, I did find some references which you
might be interested in, if you don't already have them. All of these can be
found in Ancestry.com.

In the Index to the 1840 U.S. Federal Census, there is one other another
Benjamin Mill listed:

Name: Benjamin Mill
Township: Girard
County: Erie
State:PA

Distribution of family members by age from census image:

Males:

10-15 2
40-50 1

Females:

20-30 !.

From the records of the Reformed Congregation of Christ Union Church, Lower
Saucon Township, Northampton County, PA, 1756-1845:

Name: Bejamin Hill
Description: Father
Event: Baptism.

(No further dates or names given.)

Name: Benjamin Mill
Description: Father
Event: Burial
Remarks: Died at age 7 months.

(No further dates or names given.)

The Index for the 1840 U.S. Federal Census shows the following for Henry
Mill:

Name: Henry Mill
Township: New Haven
County: Huron
Year: 1840.

Distribution of family members by age from census image:

Males:

0-5 1
5-10 1
10-15 1
15-20 1
20-30 1
40-50 1

Females:

0-5 1
5-10 1
10-15 1
15-20 1.

(The above is the census record you cite.)

From the records of Union Church, Hamilton Township, Northampton County, PA,
1800-1830:

Name: Heinrich Mill
Event: Birth
Date: 16 Apr 1799

Event: Confirmation
Date: 1 Jul 1820

Event: Communion
Date: 5 May 1821.

Hope some of this might be new for you.
