Census
1860 census of Rowan Co., Ky, Morehead P.O., enumerated 13 July, lists on p. 17 as family #120/124:
Alfrey, Tompson, 28; Harriett, 23; Ellen, 5; Andrew, 2; Leander, 2/12. All born in Ky.
(There are no other Alfrey or Jones families nearby. They are mostly surrounded by Donohue, Wilson and Crosthwait families.)

Alfrey, Thompson, 38, farmer; Harriet, 37; Ellen, 17; Andrew, 13; Nelson, 11; Rolly, 9; John, 7; Mary, 5; Harry, 3. All born in Kentucky.
(The age for Harriett is 4 years older than that implied by the 1860 census, and 5 years older than that implied by the 1880 census, so I am trusting the 1860 age more. Nelson is probably the same person as Leander who was born in the spring of 1860.)
