Census Notes for James J. & Lydia (Family)
1870 census of Carter Co., Ky, precinct 3, Grayson P.O., enumerated 18 July, lists on p. 11 as family #70/65:
Perry, James, 26, farmer; Lydia, wife, 20; Mary, 5/12; Elmyra, 12. All born in Kentucky.

James is either Elmira’s brother or her uncle, depending on who her parents were. (Ancestry.com has indexed the family’s surname as Penz, and Elmyra as “Elmzrs”, which you can imagine made this record hard to find.)
