    The child Lucinda in the list below never appears in any census.  From the order of lisitng, Wiliam must be the last child, and does show up in the 1860 census.  Thus it looked like Lucinda was born and died between the 1850 and 1860 censuses.  The right portion of the census scan on Ancestry.com is cut off, obscuring most of the birth state field.  But then Lucinda is reported in the 1970 census at age 15, meaning she should have been in the 1860 census.  So where was she?

    Another family in Lafayette County, Mississippi, looks very much like this one, and I cannot otherwise identify them.  The parents are Jesse and Mima (nickname for Jemima).  They have a son Jasper whom some match up with Reuben (and this corresponds with a related couple, Richard Andrew Philpot and Nancy Ann Holliday,  who named their son Reuben Jasper).  Thomas here matches Reuben's brother.  Other children here, also, are very close to the other famliy:  William, Elizabeth, Jemima (Penina).

    I found that Lafayette is right next to Calhoun County, and this appears to be one of the cses where soemone was enumerated twice.  I have several examples for individuals.  I think this is only second one I have seen for a whole famliy.

    The Calhoun County record was taken in July and the Lafayette County one in September.  They may have either moved, or they were there temporarily and got counted with the permanent household members.  In 1880, they are in DeSoto County, with two related families.  DeSoto is a little to the north of Lafayette.

    The ages of Jessee and Jemima vary a little, being reported as 50 (Jesse) and 49 (Jemima) in July and 45 and 40 respectively in September.  Ages vary a lot in census reports, a there is a year or two difference in the children's reported ages, common for that era.  Otherwise they are a close match.

    Penina Philpot 12 F born MS [also older than William]

    In 1870, Jesse and Jemima are living with their daughter Penina (reproted as Perlina), with other children.  There is a new name, Jane, which I cannot relate to any previous reported child, but appears to be a child of Jesse and Jemima.  The name Jane does not appear in the child lists on the Find-a-Grave memorials.
