(It appears that the census taker was inconsistent with relationships above. The HH Nancy was the mother of John B. who was married to Francis. Apparently Samuel, Martha and Franklin are the children of John B. & Francis. Then the last two names, Nancy E. and James P. E., were apparently children of the elder Nancy.)
