somewhere?

No, probably just not going far enough. And I said to click on "Family" when I should have said to click on "Household." Sorry.

I did a search for Joseph Bone in Texas in the 1880 US census and got six hits. The last one was the one you were looking for, Joseph A. Bone. Clicking on his name in the list of matches will take you to a page entitled "Individual Record." To the far right on that page will be a link for "Household." (It's simply the word "Household" underlined.) Click on that, and you'll see a listing of everyone in the household. The page number and location will appear under "Source Information" below that.

Not all the people in the list of matches are HOHs. In the match list you'll see the relationship to the HOH for each person. For example, in the list of six Josephs above four were sons and two were HOHs ("Self").
