Thomas B Gaines 39 M   Carpenter   Va
Mary A     " 34 F       "
Joseph R   " 19 M   Carpenter   Ky
Joseph appears to be Thomas's brother, but he could be Thomas's son by a prior wife.  Listed next to William T. & Mary C. (PERKINS) FANT and sixteen households from Mary's probable brother, James CORBIN.
