They are also on the 1860 census, but the father, John, is shown 15 years older. Also, a 32 year old male named James is added, but he and William, John, and Iverson are all designated as "domestics", not family members, from Mississippi. And, both Eliza Jane, who married Thomas Bonner in 1855, and Leatha Ann, who married William Brack in 1857, are listed with their parents' household -- but their husbands are not.
