Grace,
Not sure why Edward shows up as Edmund on the census.Might be a transcription error.I have yet to figure out why Ed and Lucy's daughter Parthenia shows up as "Asenath".Others in the family that have had Parthenia as a name have been called "Cennie"/"Cenie".
Am not sure if the house is still standing as it has been several years since I have been in that area.It is located on Northside Road.The house was/is surrounded by trees/bushes/weeds and not easily seen anymore.The closest landmark I can think of is a sawmill that is across the road from the house.The cemetery is also grown over and back in the field.There are/were some trees that looked a little out of place in the field.I don't remember thembeing pine trees but don't remember what kind they were.From what I remember there are several people buried back there.Was back in the cemetery when all the nasty snakes were awake so didn't stay long.Had planned on going back when it is cold weather and a little safer but haven't made it to date.
Hope this helps a little.
