Roland is indexed with middle initial, "S," but I find it indecipherable (could be S or L or T); in 1870, his middle initial is clearly, "T."

Martha (nee SMITH) is William's wife. Listed two households after married son, Allen PROCTOR (æ 26, b. KY; wife Lavina, æ 19, b. KY), and three households before Rowland PROCTOR (æ 23, b. KY; wife Sarelda, æ 19, b. KY), who is presumably the "R. PROCTOR" of the 1850 census, though the ages for both Allen and Rowland are "off."

7. 1870 Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com): Elizabeth not found, but we do find sons Fenton PROCTOR (æ 49, b. KY; wife Harriet, æ 30, b. KY), R.T. PROCTOR (æ 36, b. KY; wife Zerilda, æ 30, b. KY), and Wm. PROCTOR (æ 32, b. KY, wife Martha) still in Jefferson Co., KY.
