Preston and Rachel Orfield

I've found entries in the 1870 and 1880 Jefferson census for Preston and Rachel. As well as an entry in the 1910 census for Preston ( living in the household of William Henderson ).

I've also seen entries for Preston (1915) and Rachel (1908) in the Abingdon cemetary on rootsweb.

I think Rachel is probably my 2nd great grand aunt, Rachel Kestner, who married Preston Orfield Jr. in 1863 in Washington Co, VA.

Has anyone done any research on these two? The census indicated they had no children, is this true?

I'm also interested in William, as I'm related to Hendersons who migrated from Scotland.

Thanks.
