I have found my copy of the page from the 1850 Texas census book. This is for Shelby County, Texas. Pg. 1763 of the book.

Notice how Delily (a nickname for Delila) kept having kids after hers were grown and married! Uncle Moss and his neice Elizabeth are the same age. His neices Lusindy and Martha are older than him.Lusindy is closest to her uncle James in age. AND Moss being 5 and Delily 55, well, that puts her at 50 when she had him!
Alexander's and Delily's son Michale Lee shows up in 1850 in Fayette County, Tex.
The family names is mispelled Bolting. Pg. 735 of census book for 1850.

Sarah is usually found as Sally, a common nick name for Sarah. Lucinda is my great-greatgrandmother.
Michale LeeBolton died in 1856, exact date unknown. Sally Maria died Jan. 9, 1856. Probate records her as Sarah Mary. Michael, Sally, Delia, and a baby Bolton are buried in the Old Black Jack Springs Cemetery in Fayette County, prob. outside of La Grange, near West Point and Muldoon.
Hopes this helps in your search.
