1860 census-William F; 12; born VA

1870 census - head of house is Benjamin Bolsom, probably William's grandfather. George is also living in this household. However, both George and William are two years younger than my dates and this is the census where George is also living with his mother, Rebecca, but William is not. This census also has a number of Bolsom's listed as black, domestic servants.

1880 census - again Benjamin Balsam is listed as head of house with William and his sister, Gracie, living in the house. No domestic servants are listed. William is 23 and I think he should be 32; Gracie is 14 and I think she should be 27 - so is this even the same family?

Norfolk City Directories 1888, 1889, and 1890 - William is living at 24 Reservoir Avenue, and boards at 22 Reservoir Avenue, and lives at 11 Maltby Avenue, he is a bricklayer and brick mason

1900 census-William F; born Oct 1848; 51; brick mason
