    Head of household is Zechariah Ashton, 48. His wife is Mary, 36 (2nd wife, Frank's stepmother). Note that Laura refers to her half brother as Frank but in this census he is listed as James F., so I am assuming that his name was James Franklin. Other children in Zechariah's family used their middle name as their primary name (Samuel Edward, Michael Simeon).
