Individual Details

1860 Census. Linden P.O., Perry Co TN, Hh 37
A. W. Goodman, age 21, farmer, b. TN [This would be Asa's son Arch]
Sarah, age 22.
William age 7 and Harvy, age 1. [I wonder if William was their child or perhaps a nephew?]
A. W. "Arch" is said to have married his 1st cousin, a daughter of Terrell Goodman - this is confusing since the four children, heirs of Alexander Goodman, do not include a son Terrell, nor any children of a deceased son if he was not living. This is thought to be Sarah in 1850 when she was age 16 - notice that she is older than indicated in 1860, making it much more likely for William to be her child.
1850 Census. Civil District 2, Lewis Co, TN, Hh 573
Samuel Campbell, age 45, b. SC. Sarah Campbell, age 47, b. GA
Children all b. TN; Sally A. Goodman, age 16
Martha Campbell, age 16. William, 14. Levi 9. Wily age 5.
However, it would appear that Arch was only 14 or 15 when William was born. Was William really his child? Or simply raised by Arch?
