I think the following is your Thomas Elijah South's family.

1870 Clinton Co, KY census, Dist 2, p. 5
Joshua G. South 45 KY
Angettetta South 46 KY 5
James B. South 16 KY
William R. South 14 KY
Sarah J. South 12 KY
Elijah T. South 10 KY
George W. South 8 KY
John A. South 6 KY
Margaret South 4 KY
Surrilda F. South 2 KY
Salina E. South 7/12 KY

I think the 1900 census is wrong as far as Elijah's age. It also seems to be wrong as far as the number of years Elijah and Margaret were married. It says 23, but I believe the following family from 1880 Fentress co, TN is Margaret living with her parents. Their surname is given as Kernell in the census but it seems to be the same family as the Kerney's in 1900 Pickett co, TN.


1880 Federal census
Census Place District 6, Fentress, Tennessee
Family History Library Film 1255254
NA Film Number T9-1254
Page Number 540B

Name Relation Marital Status Gender Race Age Birthplace Occupation Father's Birthplace Mother's Birthplace
Jesse KERNELL Self M Male W 50 TN Farming VA VA
Mary KERNELL Wife M Female W 36 TN Keeping House VA VA
Margrett KERNELL Dau S Female W 20 TN At Home TN TN
Mary KERNELL Dau S Female W 18 TN At Home TN TN
Huston KERNELL Son S Male W 15 TN Farm Labor TN TN
Henry KERNELL Son S Male W 13 TN Farm Labor TN TN
Harriett KERNELL Dau S Female W 10 TN TN TN
Samuel KERNELL Son S Male W 8 TN TN TN
Sarah J. KERNELL Dau S Female W 5 TN TN TN
William KERNELL Son S Male W 3 TN TN TN
Sousan KERNELL Dau S Female W 8M TN TN TN
Thomas KERNELL Son S Male W 8M TN TN TN

Joshua South and his family are also in 1880 Fentress Co, TN.

1880 Federal census
Census Place District 11, Fentress, Tennessee
Family History Library Film 1255254
NA Film Number T9-1254
Page Number 560B

Name Relation Marital Status Gender Race Age Birthplace Occupation Father's Birthplace Mother's Birthplace
Joshua SOUTH Self M Male W 55 KY Farmer NC NC
Angelletta SOUTH Wife M Female W 55 KY Keeping House KY KY
Sarah J. SOUTH Dau S Female W 24 KY Doing House Work KY KY
Gorge W. SOUTH Son S Male W 20 KY Works On Farm KY KY
Joshua A. SOUTH Son S Male W 15 KY Works On Farm KY KY
Surrilda F. SOUTH Dau S Female W 13 KY At Home KY KY
Salina E. SOUTH Dau S Female W 11 KY At Home KY KY
Lewis F. SOUTH Son S Male W 6 TN --- ---
Malissa B. SOUTH Dau S Female W 1 TN TN KY

The following is very likely Thomas Elijah with his first wife:

1880 Federal census
Census Place District 11, Fentress, Tennessee
Family History Library Film 1255254
NA Film Number T9-1254
Page Number 560A

Name Relation Marital Status Gender Race Age Birthplace Occupation Father's Birthplace Mother's Birthplace
Thomas SOUTH Self M Male W 23 KY Works On Farm KY KY
Lutisha SOUTH Wife M Female W 23 TN Keeping House TN TN

This may all be a strange coincidence but I think you should at least check these families out.
