1870 Dallas County, Texas - Precinct 5 - PO Dallas - October 22, 1870 - page 480 2156 - Bright, T. B., age 29; Farmer; /$250; born Missouri Mary, age 25; keeping house; born Tennessee William, age 2; born Missouri Mary L., age 1; born Texas Teel, Hiram, age 28; Farmer; /$100; born Tennessee and this appears to be the same family in 1880 Wise County. I can't explain the need to name two sons "William", so perhaps is a transcription error.
