Lookup please? 1870 Census Jefferson FL

Does anyone have access to the 1870 Jefferson FL census records that would not mind doing a lookup for me?

I am looking for two households on the 1870 Jefferson Census:

Household of John Denham b abt 1819 Scotland, wife Caroline b abt 1826 South Carolina;

and

Thomas Palmer Denham b abt 1862 FL (there are conflicting records of whether a John or Andrew Denham is father to Thomas Palmer Denham, so I am specifically trying to find out if Thomas Palmer is in the household with John & Caroline in 1870).

If anyone would check that for me, I would greatly appreciate it!

There is no Thomas Palmer Denham listed in Jefferson County in 1870. The eight year old above is the only Thomas Denham.

The family of William Denham, a dry goods merchant born in Scotland, does live in Jefferson County. He does not have a Thomas in his household.

The Andrew Denham I found in North Florida is in Newport, Wakulla, Florida.

This really helps, as I believed Thomas to be son of John, but some researchers had him as son of Andrew.

Thank you so much! :)
