I find one Carrie E Feazel in the 1850 Woodford Co., Linn Twp Census listed as age 1 yr (b. 1849 IL). Parents are Benjamin Feazel age 32 (b. abt 1848 in IL.) Wife is Elizabeth, age 27, also born IL. One older daughter also appears, Anna B. age 4 born in IL. Woodford County boarders Marshall Co to the South, so I went back to the 1860 Marshall Co census & the only family that had a son born in the correct time frame was William Feazel (age 50) and wife Elizabeth (age 38) with a son "Frankie" age 13 (b. 1847). Granted, it's a stretch to imagine Benjamin as being "Frankie" but it may be the clue you need. ( possible formal name of Benjamin FRANKlin Feazel.) This family of William Feazel is part of the family of Jeremiah Feazell who settled in Marshall County in the mid 1800's. Hope this is of some help.
