4. 1860 Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com, Image #21 of 156): Sandersville P.O., Washington Co., GA, Roll M653_140, p. 179, PN 21, 153/146, enumerated 7 Jun 1860, official enumeration date 1 Jun 1860 (extracted by Diana Gale Matthiesen):¤•

Thomas Tanner 56 M Farmer 2800 2500 Georgia

Mary      " 52 F South Carolina

Richard   " 24 M Georgia

Franklin " 23 M (Invalid) 160 "

Martha    " 11 F "

Rebecca   " 8 F "

Joseph    " 4 M "

Westley   " 9/12 M "

Aurelia   " 18 F "

This enumerator was clueless how to deal with a multi-family household: Aurelia is Richard's wife and Westley is their son. I'm highly dubious that Mary had a child at the age of 48, so Joseph may be their grandson.
