An earlier post explained why I thought Keziah Ford was Keziah Hinds, which would make her the sister of Ann (Hinds) Rice who was living in close proximity to Keziah in 1850.
In 1850 William (born in Georgia in 1803) and Keziah Ford (born in Virginia in 1805) were living very near Ann L. Rice (Keziah's probable sister); only the David Ford household was between them.
Below is a little more information about Kezia's family, especially her daughter, Palmyra (Ford) Rhoten:
