    Lucy's age varies wildly in the censuses.  She is reported to be 29 in 1850, which would mean birth year was abotu 1821.  She is 11 years younger than her husband David.  Then in 1860, she is 54, making her born in 1806, and 5 years older than her husband.  Ages varyof some of the chidlren vary too.

    David McSwain 49 M Farmer $850 Real Estate $1805 Personal  born North Carolina [b abt 1811, noted that Sarah is his mother is his father]
    Lucy McSwain 54 F born North Carolina
    James McSwain 19 M Farmer born North Carolina
    Unecy [Eunicey] J McSwain 15 F born North Carolina
    Daniel L McSwain 17 M Laborer born North Carolina
    George C McSwain 12 M Laborer born North Carolina
    William P McSwain  M born North Carolina
    Sarah McSwain 73 F born North Carolina [b abt 1787]

    I cannot completely match up the children, which might lead us to conclude that this is a different David and Lucy.  David matches Daniel, and David L seems to be the right name.  The Sarah here could be either Lucy's mother Sarah Bostic or David's mother (known in most sources as Susanna Hamrick, but reported in Hamricks of Ireland as Sarah Susanna Hamrick). I think it is Lucy's mother, since the Hamrick's of Ireland is the only source I ahve seen that adds the name Sarah to Susannah Hamrick McSwain.
