The Final Glimpse at Reuben & Elizabeth Jolly

Thanks to our Internet cousin, Marion, we know that on 7 September 1850, Reuben and Elizabeth's household was enumerated for the U.S. Census. Once again, the township was not specified, but they have moved into Columbus County, North Carolina.

Reuben is now 50, and still a farmer. His household is given a value of $200. His wife, Elizabeth, now 33, is watching over their large family. In addition to the daughter to links us to Reuben and Elizabeth (Celia J, now 13), there are eleven other children in the home. They are: Martha (14), James (11), Prudence C. (10), Solomon (9), Hugh (8), Rebecca A. (7), Katharine (6), David J. (5), Jesse R. (5), Jackson M. (2), Elizabeth (1).

I do not have any further information on Reuben or Elizabeth. I also do not have any information the parents of either.
