Notes 
Individual:
23 Sep 1850 US Federal Census
Location: Ward 3 Township 20, Claiborne Parish, LA
Description: Miles Buford (61, b. VA, Occupation = Planter, $4750 Real Estate); Wife Jemima (35, b. SC); Son Jefferson (18, b. MO); Daughter Almerinda (16, b. MO); Daughter Eliza (14, b.

18 Aug 1860 US Federal Census
Location: Ward 7, Claiborne Parish, LA (Post Office = Homer)
Description: Miles Buford (69, b. VA, Occupation = Farmer, $4500 Real Estate, $9000 Personal Estate); J. S. Buford (45, b. SC); Daughter F. Buford (15); Son J. K. P. Buford (13); Son K. M. J. Buford (10); Son D. J. Buford (8); & Son H. W. Buford (3). All of the Buford Children were b. LA and attended School within the year.
Notes: Jemima S. Buford's date of birth is consistently 1815 in both 1850 & 1860 Census records. However, this differs from the Ancestry.com Marriage record depicting 1811 as her birth year.

23 Aug 1870 US Federal Census
Location: Ward 3, Claiborne Parish, LA
Description: Miles Buford (80, b. VA, Occupation = Farmer, $900 Real Estate, $585 Personal Estate); Wife Jemima (58, b. SC, Cannot Write); Son D. J. (18, b. LA, Occupation = Farm Laborer); & Son H. W. (13, b. LA, Occupation = Farm Laborer).
Notes: Jemima S. Buford's date of birth listed for the 1870 Census record matches the Ancestry.com Marriage record as 1811 for her birth year. There was a dramatic decline in Miles Buford's wealth (Real Estate & Personal Estate) between the 1850 & 1860 Census records. Was this possibly due to: (1) his transfer of assets to his older Children given his age of 80 yrs. or (2) the negative effects of the Civil War?

17 Jun 1880 US Federal Census
Location: 3rd Ward, Claiborne Parish, LA
Description: Jemima S. Buford (69, Widowed, b. SC, Parents b. SC); Son Decater J. Buford (27, Single, Occupation = Farm Laborer, b. LA, Parents b. SC); Daughter Fanney Emily Buford (32, Widowed, b. LA, Parents b. SC); Granddaughter Emmer Hambrick (12, b. LA, Father b. AR, Mother b. LA, Occupation = Farm Laborer); & Granddaughter Joe Manda Hambrick (9, b. LA, Father b. AR, Mother b. LA).
Notes: The two, adult Buford Children had incorrect listings of their Father being born in SC (hw was b. VA). Daughter, Fanney Emily Buford, had dropped her married surname of Hambrick although her two daughters carried that surname.
