1870 Dallas County, Texas - Precinct 5 - PO Dallas - October 22, 1870 - page
480
2156 - Bright, T. B., age 29; Farmer; /$250; born Missouri
Mary, age 25; keeping house; born Tennessee
William, age 2; born Missouri
Mary L., age 1; born Texas
Teel, Hiram, age 28; Farmer; /$100; born Tennessee

and this appears to be the same family in 1880 Wise County. I can't explain
the need to name two sons "William", so perhaps is a transcription error.

From the LDS census transcription:
