Census:

1. Bays, Charles, 30, male, farmer, [no real estate value stated], personal $400, Virginia
2. _____, Mahala, 37, female, laborer, Kentucky

4. _____, Laura E., 2, female, Kentucky
5. Hill, William, 12, male, Kentucky, attending school
6. _____, Cynthia, 11, female, Kentucky, attending school
[William and Cynthia Hill in this census are almost certainly the children found in the 1850 census in the home of Robert M. George, with Mahala still present: William, age 5, and Cynthia, age 4, While the ages do not match, the names and birth order do match. Mahala may have been married to a Hill in the 1840's and widowed or divorced, and the enumeration may have failed to take her surname into consideration. Alternately, perhaps she was not married, had two children, and later assigned the children their father's surname.]

Notes:

Married:

Marriage date based on age of son William Hill, 12, in the 1860 Floyd County census.

The 1840 census reflects a "William Hill," age 30-40, with a son age 15-20. On the same page is the Robert M. George family (Mahala's family), in addition to other George families and affiliated surnames. It is likely that Mahala married a son from this family; the naming of their eldest son "William" supports this likelihood. There is another William Hill in the county at the same time, but the lack of proximity makes him a less likely candidate.

Children: 1. William Hill was born about 1848 in Kentucky, USA. Cynthia Alice Hill was born about 1849 in Kentucky, USA.
