Delia Fast..7..Virginia
Mary Fast..5..Virginia
Octavius Fast..5m..Virginia

NOTE - The name of Octavius is somewhat of a mystery and he may not have been a son or Richard and Sarah's. With an age of 5 months, that would place his birth probably around January or February of 1850 depending upon how the enumerator calculated it. However, there is a supposed birth date of 8 Dec 1849 to a son named Joseph Emery Fast whose name does not appear on the census record at all. It is possible that Octavius and Joseph are the same son (perhaps the parents changed his name) but if so, then his age should probably have been shown as 6 months old. The ages are too close to tell for sure and there is no other mention of the name of Octavius.
