1860 Census Philadelphia Ward 4 West Division, Philadelphia Co., PA E. B. Jackson 65 F VA (Elizabeth Butler Grigsby Jackson) J. V. Howison 44 F VA (Juliet Virginia) L. V. Howison 21 F DC (Laura V.) A. V. Howison 17 F DC (Adelaide V.) B. Howison 14 F DC (Bessie) G. W. Jackson 32 M clerk VA (c1829) J. W. Howison 19 M clerk blank E. V. Howison 15 M DC A. G. Howison 17 M DC Some of these initials were difficult to decipher because of the flourishes. This transcriber assumes the last three Howison young people are not children of Juliet, but may be nephews. G. W. Jackson's relationship is unknown at this time but could be a son of John Farrow and Elizabeth Grigsby Jackson or could be a nephew, the son of John's brother, George W. Jackson.
