Polly is too old to have birthed the three youngest children, and the way they are listed suggests they are Washington's children (i.e., that he is a widower).

6.  1870 U.S. Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com, Image #8 of 21):  Bland C.H. [Court House] P.O., Seddon Twp., Bland Co., VA, Roll M593_1636, p. 410B, PN 8, enumerated 15 Jul 1870, 51/51, official enumeration date 1 Jun 1870 (extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen):
Kitts Polly 60 F W Keeping house     Va
_____ Jackson 22 M " Farm Laborer     "

We're uncertain of Polly's age, but Nancy and Fanny appear to have shaved two or three years off their ages.
