1840 census Overton Co TN p36
Joseph Duncan 1 M 5-10, 1 M 10-15, 1 M 20-30, 1 M 40-50, 1 F 15-20, 1 F 40-50
[x, James 17?, Jeremiah 20, Joseph 50, Mary Ann 18, Mary 46]

1830 census Fentress Co TN p4
Joseph Duncan 1 M 5-10, 1 M 10-15, 1 M 30-40, 1 F 5-10, 1 F 10-15, 1 F 15-20, 1 F 30-40
[James 7?, Jeremiah 10, Joseph 40, Mary Ann 8, Matilda 13, Rebecca 17, Mary 36]

I think this is him:
1820 census Overton Co TN p256
Joseph Dunkin 2 M <10, 1 M 16-18, 1 M 16-26, 1 M 45+, 2 F <10, 1 F 16-26
[Jeremiah <1, x, x, Joseph 30?, Matilda 3, Rebecca 7, Mary 26]

Is the older man Joseph mis-marked? If not, who is he? Joseph's father is on p12. Either way, who is the teenage boy?
