Kaye, Try the 1925 Iowa census. The children born in the 1890's might be living in Iowa and all of the girls may not have married. If you can find anyone on this census it will give you the mothers maiden name and where the parents were married. As I am sure you know the records are not always accurate. I am looking for decendents of Charles and Sarah [Cook] Shields. Their youngest daughter Lucy married James Trobough. On one of their childrens records she is listed as maiden name, Lucy Sears! But I think it is worth a try. Good luck Pat patundrwd@aol.com
