Stephen Wesley Sage - Ashe County, NC

Surnames: Sage Cannoy Ashley Blackman
I have a Stephen Wesley Sage who married Amanda Blackman in 1867 and Amanda Ashley in 1879.

Does anyone know if this is the son of Jonathon Sage and Rosamond Hale or the son of James Sage Jr. and Catherine Cannoy? The census entries seem to split the difference between the two men's ages.

The 1870 Census entry is also a bit confusing:

1870 United States Federal Census > North Carolina > Ashe > Staggs Creek
Stephen Sage 24 Farmer VA
Amanda 27 Keeping House NC
James 11 At Home NC
Elizabeth 10 At Home NC
John 2 NC
David 5/12 NC

James and Elizabeth would have been born when Stephen was about 13, making me wonder if they are brother and sister, rather than children.
