Census Notes for Benjamin Franklin & Elizabeth (Family)
1860 census of Carroll Co., Virginia, Dugspur P.O., enumerated 14 July, lists on p. 68 as family #444/448:
Benjamin Turman, 28, farmer; Elijah, 70, farmer; Elizabeth Phillips, 28, cook; Julia A., 2; Tobias, 1. All born in Virginia.
Julia and Tobias are apparently Benjamin’s children by Julia, even though they are recorded as Phillips - Tobias goes by the surname Turman in later records. Elizabeth might be the widow of a Phillips instead of it being her maiden name.
