The obit has another fact wrong, as I found him and Lucinda in the 1900 census living in Kirksville, MO, he born Apr. 1861, she alive as of June 1900, born Jan. 1855, Ida Belle b. March 1877, Stella b. Oct. 1882. Census says they had 3 children, and that 3 were living as of June 1900, but only two are shown living with Archibald and Lucinda. This obituary was originally entered into my data base in 1994, before I was experienced with the census, and ways in which to record citations, etc., so while I have his death date as September 25, 1913, I do not know how that date was derived. I also have his burial date as September 27, and both dates could have come from either the burial records of the McLouth cemetery, which are available through the Jefferson County Genealogical Society, or the dates could have been derived from the fact that the McLouth newspaper was only published on Thursdays, and the obit was written in the past tense. May I ask the source for the marriage date for Archibald and Lucinda? Would like to pursue this line with you, and am willing to share whatever I have. gdhobgen@aol.com Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
