Note that Thomas + Mary Ann Docker are only a couple of doors away from John in 1861 (same page).

A search for Reb* Orson in 1851 turns up another hit (but wrong age and no sis Julia). However, it's not a common combination of names, and I'm wondering if they're cousins, both named after their gran.
