The profile lists the following for 1860 census:

"United States Census, 1860", database with images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M6G8-HVL : 18 February 2021), William Thames, 1860.

* Household Role Sex Age Birthplace
* William Thames Male 39 Mississippi
* Caroline Thames Female 37 Alabama
* Mary Thames Female 19 Mississippi
* James Thames Male 18 Mississippi
* Isam Thames Male 15 Mississippi
* William Thames Male 12 Mississippi
* Sarah Thames Female 8 Mississippi
* Elizabeth Thames Female 4 Mississippi
* Thomas Thames Male 2 Mississippi

Seems that some children may be wrongly attached and need sorting.

Family Search lists theses on the tree profile:

Mary Jane Thames
1840–1925 • LB2G-NK3​​

James William Thames
1843–1863 • LB2G-K5M​​

Isham William Thames
1845–1864 • LB2G-JLP​​

William Edward Thames
1848–1887 • 94F8-RKR​​

Sarah A Thames
1852–1875 • LB2G-LYV​​

M Elizabeth Thames
1855–1863 • LB2G-LX8​​

Thomas Thames
1857–Deceased • LB2G-59W​​

Jefferson Davis Thames
1857–1921 • LB2G-LFS

Jefferson Davis Thames does not show up in census data. No Benjamin Cornelius. No John Bosier. No Suzannah Thames. Need to see if some mergers or cleanups need to occur, but some things are not consistent with census data. May be for another William Thames.
