Nice catch! Due to the naming patterns, which were methodically consistent at that time, you can bet that Gliston's mother, or in the least, grandmother was a Gliston. I try to think phonetically when I think of how census/tax record takers butchered surnames. Thus, I am not sure if I can stretch Gliston or Glisson to Gallego or Gallegos but it is possible.
