Henson Family of Moore County NC

John Daniel Henson (1861-1950) married Margaret Isabel Person (1863-1951), daughter of Neill Person and Sarah Jones. John's age fits nicely for him to be the son of Reuben Manly Henson and wife Sophia, but their son John is listed in the 1870 census (Randolph Co. NC) as John V., not John D. The writing is clear. Was this an error in the census, or am I looking at the wrong family here?
