Census Notes for Richard Thomas Pettit
1870 census of Pendleton Co., Ky, Falmouth, taken 1 June, lists on p. 408, family #38:
Pettit, R.T., 38; Mary E., 33; S.E., 14 (female); James, 11; Hattie E., 5; Lee, 3; L., (female), 5/12, b. Dec; Joseph J., 31, blacksmith. "S.E." is probably the Elizabeth which Steve Navaro lists as a daughter of Richard and his first wife. The ages for Hattie and James are quite different than the 1880 census, so the age for S.E. may be off too.

1880 census of Pendleton Co., Ky, Falmouth, sheet 26, line 49, lists:
