    • The 1880 Census shows his father born in North Carolina, and his mother born in Georgia. The 1850 Census states that he was born in Georgia, but the subsequent 3 Census that he is shown on list a birth state of Tennessee, so there is some question, but Tennessee seems more likely.

    • The reason I believe this is "my" SP Williamson - just a few years later, he is married to Mary Matilda Duck and having kids. Mary Duck was enumerated with her family in Broomtown, Chattooga, Georgia in the 1850 Census, indicating some connection in this area.

      stated value of real estate owned: $500. Also living in this household:
      Martha Williamson, 58F, born in Georgia
      Elizabeth Williamson, 34F, born in Georgia
      Francis M. Williamson, 19M, laborer, born in Tennessee

      S.P. Williamson was 32 years old, seems to have been a bachelor (or a widower). Martha, 26 years his senior, is likely his mother, perhaps widowed. Elizabeth, two years his senior, but not listed immediately after him in the household enumeration, is not likely his wife. More likely a sister or sister-in-law. If she is a widow with a 19 year old son, since her last name was given as Williamson, then she would be a sister-in-law. But this is all just a guess.

      Have placed Francis M. Williamson as a brother, but he could have been a nephew, child of Elizabeth, who was perhaps his widowed sister-in-law or some such.

    farmer 
    • In the 1860 Census he is listed as a farmer, in the 1870 Census he is listed as a farm hand, and in the 1880 Census he is again listed as a farmer. This could imply a change from owning and working land to being a worker on someone else's land to then owning his own farm again - or it could just be the different way that census takers chose to write things down.
