Lavina STROUP is William's mother, and the others are his siblings.

3. 1870 Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com, Image #12 of 13): Greenville P.O., Cowen Twp., Wayne Co., MO, Roll M593_825, p. 190B, PN 12, 82/84, enumerated 8 Jun 1870, official enumeration date 1 Jun 1870 (extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen):¤•

______ Margeret E 39 F W Keeping House North Carolina

______ Sylvanus S 15 M W At Home Missouri

______ Franklin S 17 M W At Home Missouri

Despite the middle initial, this has to be our subject, and Margaret is his unmarried sister, not his wife. Sylvanus STROUP is William's nephew, son of his late brother, Monroe STROUP. I haven't managed to identify Franklin S. STROUP. Listed next to William's brother, Sydney A. STROUP.

3. 1880 Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com, Image #3 of 16): Cedar Creek Twp., Wayne Co., MO, Roll T9_0740, p. 209C, PN 3, SD 2, ED 189, enumerated 2 Jun 1880, official enumeration date 1 Jun 1880 (extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen):¤•

Sydney A. STROUP is (obviously) our subject's younger brother. The question here is whether William has married and been widowed since the last census, or is Mary the child of some other brother of Sydney's? I'm going to assume Mary is William's daughter, but that may be incorrect.
