This corresponds to the family of Christophel Wimer (age 60)and Mary Sophia Snyder (age 59). The male in his 30's could be Samuel (37), Peter (35) or John (33).

4	1840_United_States_Federal_Census, Slippery Rock Twp., Butler County PA. (from Ancestry.com pg. 7). Household of Christopher Wimer: 1 male age 60-70, & 1 female age 70-80. Household of Isaac Wimer: 1 male under 5, 1 male 30-40, & 1 female 30-40. The child is the son of Rebecca Wimer & Thomas Kelly, adopted by Isaac Wimer & Mary Pisor. These 2 households are next to each other in the census record.
5	1850 United States Federal Census, Slippery Rock Twp, Butler Co, PA, page 24. Census dated 8 Aug 1850. Lines 9-11: Frederick Pisor, 38, farmer; Mary Wimer, 39; Sarah E. Kelly, 13, in school. All b. PA. Note: Mary Wimer, widowed in 1845, is living with a relative. The child is listed here as Sarah E. Kelly, female. Paul Myers in "The Wimer Family" (source 6) indicates that Isaac Wimer and wife Mary (Pisor) adopted the child of Rebecca Wimer (Isaac Wimer's sister) and Thomas Kelly when Rebecca died giving birth to the child. However, Myers lists the child as male and the name as Isaac Eli Kelly. We can not reconcile these differences. Neither name can be identified in later census records using the Ancestry.com search engine.
