Snip: Cindy wrote: Oh, the family of Jacob and Sarah (Hicks) KIMES was in Clinton county, IA when the 1870 census was taken. But they moved to Johnson Co before 1880. Perhaps one of their descendants had a Jacob born in OH!!!!! They lived in Meigs Co for a number of years before moving west. This isn't my branch so those subscribers that have researched this line will know specific dates. How about it Mitzie, Don, and Richard? My Jacob and Sarah (Hicks) Kimes and all their family, except one married daughter, left Clinton Co., IA. in late 1870 or early 1871 and moved to Nebraska. I have no further information on Clinton Co. I called an acquaintance in Clinton Co. that had helped me a couple of years ago but she couldn't find your Jacob Kime. She didn't have the 1920 census but did have the one from 1910. Apparently she has newspaper clippings and a extensive genealogy filing system, still no Jacob in your time frame. "Shot in the dark" because they moved from Ohio to Clinton Co., Iowa, maybe they were from the same family group. I would try looking in the 1870 Meigs CO., Ohio census for a 5 year old Jacob or in the 1880 for a 15 year old. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Keep trying. Don
