John, I was able to locate your Messers. They all appeared on the same page of the 1920 Knox County Census, ED 120, Precinct 7 Messer. (Messer was part of the precinct name): 22/22 Messer, Coon 31 Mary 31 (Daughter) 1 1/2 (Unreadable. Possibly started with J - four letters) 23/23 Messer, Mitchell 31 Amelia 24 Robert 8 (Son) 6 (His name was unreadable. Possibly began with L - four letters) Callie 2 1/2 Axie 1 1/2 24/24 Messer, Amanda 75 Dicy (Daughter) 35 25/25 Messer, Thomas 56...may have been 36 but looked more like 56 Watts? (Son) 7 (Again, hard to read) The side with the page number, occupations, etc., was badly blurred. It did appear they were all from Kentucky as well as their parents. Annette Walker
