    Bethel Simmons 42 M Farming born NC
    Mary Simmons 37 F b SC
    Early Simmons 2 M b AL [born abt 1848]

    There is a 4-years difference in the age reported for Early in 1850 and 1860.  It had to be before 1850, of course, but the age of 2 reported in 1850 could have been rounded up.  In 1910 he reports his age at around 60, implying birth in about 1849 or early 1850.
