Ha! I was not thinking and only read page 787, which has only the list of children; then did the following census search and match, without the benefit of page 788, which contains the details about the children. Ah well, as you'll see the census entries are a little strange if taken alone. But together, they provide a consistent picture for this family. It's nice to see my conclusions match with the information on page 788.

Here is a comparison of Hearne and the three censuses.
Hearne History | 1860 Census | 1870 Census | 1880 Census |
|---|---|---|---|
Joseph Freeman | Josiah Freeman – 48 (1812) | Jos Freeman – 59 (1811) | Josiah Freeman – 68 (1812) |
Sarah White (Hearne) 1830 | Sarah W. – 30 (1830) | Sarah W. – 40 (1830) | Sarah W. – 50 (1830) |
Francis H. – 1849 | Thomas F. W. – 9 (1851) | Thomas T. – 19 (1851) | |
Joe B. – 1852 | Josiah B. - 6 (1854) | Josiah B. – 16 (1854) | |
William W. – 1854 | William W. – 5 (1855) | ||
James Edgar – 1856 | James E. – 3 (1857) | Edgar J. – 13 (1857) | |
John Jeter – 1858 | John J. – 1 (1859) | John G. – 11 (1859) | Jeter – 21 (1859) |
Pierpont Read – 1860 | Perpon R. – 9 (1861) | ||
Septimus F. – 1862 | Septimus P. – 7 (1863) | ||
Jessie W. – 1864 | Jessee W. – 5 (1865) | Jessee – 15 (1865) | |
Asca Adolphus – 1866 | Oscar (?) – 3 (1867) (M) | Dolly – 12 (1867) (M) | |
Sarah Clifford – 1868 | Sallie C. – 1 (1869) (F) | Clifford – 11 (1868) (F) |
An interesting note is in the 1880 census, the census taker correctly got the gender of Asca Adolphus "Dolly" and Sarah Clifford "Clifford", but a well meaning individual later overwrote the gender and drew crossed dashed lines to the son/daughter; obviously assuming they were mixed up.
