William TOON
Perdelia CARRICO

WARNING: Secondary sources show William as having a second wife, Susanna WILLET, but the Susan who was living with him in the 1850 thru 1870 censuses is shown as a daughter in the 1880 census. However, Susan is not in the household in the 1840 census, so is she really William's daughter? My interest here is CARRICO, so I'm not pursuing the matter futher, but caveat emptor!

Bell is not with them in the 1830 census, so she cannot be age 20, not unless she is not their biological daughter and/or the birthdate for William is incorrect. Why is Susan listed last? She's shown as a daughter by the 1880 census, but is she adopted? She's not in the household in 1840. Listed next to widow Lucy (__?__) CARRICO (æ 45).

If Susan is his daughter, why was she listed last in the 1850 census and not at all in the 1840 census? And why do secondary sources show William as having second wife, Susanna WILLETT?
