She was with Sallie A. 35, Lydia A., 26, Elvira 25, and Andy 3, John 2, Wm. 2, and Owen 8 mos., all b KY. I assume these were children of a son since everyone had dittos for the last name. That probably means one of the women was a dau-in-law? There was a Walker S. Pointer, 48, and family on the same page, a Wm. Pointer, 56, on previous page. In 1860, it seems that Robert and Lydia were not in Garrard Co., but in Rockcastle Co.. 1860 > Kentucky > ROCKCASTLE > MT VERNON P O Series: M653 Roll: 393 Page: 526 RIGSBY ROBT 60 M W VA KY ROCKCASTLE MT VERNON P O 1860 He was a farmer, with Lydia 55, Mary 30, Sarah 26, Lydia 24, Visa (or Vira?) 20, Hiram 16, plus Gr. Spoonmore? 18 (male). Note: I think Lydia's age must have been off a decade in 1870, a common error on census records. Also, the Vira? might be Elvira? Hope some of this helps.
