1820 census Shelby Co KY p136
George Swope 1 M <10, 2 M 26-45, 1 M 45+, 1 F 45 +
[Robinson <1, George 32, Henry 33, George 62, Margaret]

I'm guessing about that. It's highly unlikely the young male is this George's son. George Jr had one son
by his first wife in 1820, and then re-married in 1824. George Jr doesn't appear on the census. It looks
like George Jr's first wife died in childbirth and he then moved back in with his parents.
I don't know when Henry married, but I don't find him on the census so he may be still with his parents.
