------------------------------
There is a R. F. Ferguson married to a Charlotte with children Clenton and Ransom in the 1850 St. Landry Parish census. I also found a marriage record for Ransom P. Ferguson and Charlotte Insall in the St. Landry Parish marriage records with a marriage date of 11 Feb 1850. She may be a widow of an "Insall" and her maiden name may have been Heath.
I also believe the enumerator made a mistake and wrote "R. F. Ferguson" instead of "R. P. Ferguson" in the 1859 census. In looking at the census page, it clearly states "R. F." because the "F" is exactly the same as the capital letter "F" at the beginning of "Ferguson".
