Hi ! Fran, Thank you for your response and I appreciate the effort from the 1880 census. The ones listed would be too young for my Isaac & Della Mariah. Their ages should be around 45. In any case I know they had resided in Rawlings, Kansas after 1880. Della Maria IRWIN is listed in Fremont Co. Iowa in 1880. She married Rev. Conner about 1881 and moved to Kansas. I presume Isaac Conner died and Mariah returned to Fremont County by 1900. I am not sure where Isaac Conner was in 1880, since I did not find him in Fremont County, Iowa.
