Parents of Calvin Lafayette Bevis

I have been going through census records looking for my Bevis ancestors and had been given the name Mordant Bevis, living in Sulphur Springs, Hopkins Co.Tx.While doing my search I found Mordant Bevis as the son of Leak Bevis. Leak Bevis the son of Calvin Bevis. Calvin I found in the 1860 census for Lauderdale Co. Alabama. Calvin was 11 years old, born to Thomas age 40, and Jane Bevis age 40. His siblings were Thomas age 16, William age 14, Andrew age 8, Francis(male child)age 6, and Jane age 11months. Also a Martha Bevis was listed. She was age 26.
I am trying to see if these people link to my great grandfather, William Henry Bevis, born August 30, 1877 AL.
I haven't found my link yet, but I'm hoping.
I hope this information helps.
