This man and his wife changed their names and their children's names from Lively to McAfee sometime in the 1870s. If anyone might connect to this family or knows why this was done, I would like to know. I have done a little bit more research and there is certainly more to this than a census enumerator's mistake. 1860 Census of Green Co., Kentucky, District 2 Dwelling #495, Family #491 Benjamin Kesler, 46, M, Farmer, $1000, $209, KY Eliza A.
