These data indicate:

No. & Sex Age Class Therefore Born Individuals Inferred

2 males 9 or under 1810-1820 = John (b. 1815)
= James (b. 1811)

1 male 26-44 1775-1794 = John (b. 1780)

2 females 9 or under 1810-1820 = Juliet (b. 1818)

John Jackson is just one line above them on the list, so presumably they are living next door to Frances' sister, Mary Ann (Thompson) Jackson.

Frances is fibbing about her age (something most widows do).
Where is Cyrus? He should be nine years old. Daughter Frances is already married.
