Derrell,

I went back and looked at the 1870 census which is the one where the
family members were all enumerated with initials.........and had a
strong urge to strangle the census taker!! :-))

I then went to the 1860 census index, looking for Thomas as a 3 yr. old
b. SC and came up with this family which looks like a good possibility.
Did Terrell have another name of Ephraim? This is the only family I
found with a 3 yr. old Thomas that had the correct initials for both
boys.

Name: Thomas P Padget
Age in 1860: 3
Birthplace: South Carolina
Home in 1860: Regiment 2, Pickens, South Carolina
Gender: Male
Post Office: Bachelors Retreat
Roll: M653_1225
Page: 94
Year: 1860
Head of Household: Ephraigh Padget

Ephraigh Padget, 23, Overseeing, value of real estate owned: $77,
b. NC
Mary Padget, 23, b. SC
Thomas P Padget, 3, b. SC
James R Padget, 2, b. SC

I went back to the 1880 index and didn't find a listing for a Terrell
or Ephraigh or any variant spelling but I found a Thomas P. that is the
correct age and birthplace living in GA.

Thos. P. Padgett, head, 23, Farmer, b. SC, parents b. SC
Sarah, wife, 26, keeping house, cannot read or write, b. GA,
parents b. GA

Armanda, daughter, 5/12, born within the census year: Jany

WELL!!!! I just got a BIG surprise! Looks like the parents moved to
GA with Thomas and they're enumerated a few pages away from
Thomas. Looks like the father's name may be Ephraigh Terrell Padget.
