Sometimes slaves are mentioned in those records. Tom Walker is mentioned on the 1860 slave census for Grimes County, Unfortunately the slave census does not give the names of the slaves: 23. Walker, Thomas 1 27 F B 24. Walker, Thomas 1 26 M M 25. Walker, Thomas 1 24 M B 26. Walker, Thomas 1 24 F B 27. Walker, Thomas 1 20 M B 28. Walker, Thomas 1 10 F B 29. Walker, Thomas 1 9 M B 30. Walker, Thomas 1 5 M B 31. Walker, Thomas 1 1 F B 32. Walker, Thomas 1 1 M B You can find this on the Grimes County TXGenWeb site in the census section. We also have the 1860 and 1870 census online if you want to look at that.
