I am wondering if these two 1880 census clarify or muddy water. I think perhaps the first family is correct for S R Stevens and Emma Bolles, daughter of Charles Bradley Bolles and Adelia Chatfield. There only child being 'Hettie'.

The 1880 census shows the only child, 'Hettie' aged 4 born to S R Stevens and Emma nee Bolles. The ages are different for Hettie and Jessie. I have removed Grace, Lester and Ruie and left Hettie changed from Jessie.
