This William is said to be our subject's son, but his middle name does not jibe with the initial in the 1850 census. I can't find either our subject's son or this individual in the 1860, 1870, or 1880 censuses. I do find William B. HAMBY, widower, in the 1900 and 1910 censuses of Christian Co., KY.

William's middle initial is clearly "J." Listed between Isaac HAMBY (æ 76, b. SC; wife Kesiah, æ 60, b. GA) and Jerry HAMBY (æ 83, b. NC). Isaac is of an age to be Isaac's grandfather, but Kesiah is young enough to be his mother. Jerry is probably short for Jeremiah, who is of an age to be Isaac's brother.

This enumerator's handwriting was ambiguous when it came to some isolated capital letters. The indexer read the children as K.L., Abba, J.J., and J.A.M., but the "J's" could be "I's." Can't find William.
