I can tell you there are a great number of John NAPIERs in the records and there are several Ollie SIMPSONs. Therefore, there is no way one can easily pin them down. I was not able to locate the family on the 1930 Fed. Census. However, sometimes NAPIER will have a variation spelling and that may be the reason they could not be located. On the KY Birth CD's, these appear to be the births of your Ollie SIMPSON: NAPIER, Dora b. 1-25-1926 in Harlan Co., Vol. 057, Cert 28241; maiden name of mother: Ollie SIMPSON NAPIER, Nathaniel C., b. 1-26-1928 in Clay Co., Vol. 190, Cert 91599 (however, this birth was a delayed recording in 1953); maiden name of mother: Ollie SIMPSON NAPIER, Goldie, b. 9-20-1924 in Clay Co., Vol. 219, Cert 95975 (delayed birth recording until 1953); maiden name of mother: Ollie SIMPSON You could order the birth records to confirm the ages of Ollie SIMPSON and John NAPIER which might help you weed out incorrect ones and to confirm these are correct. In Harlan Co. 1910 Fed. Census, I did locate a young girl as follows who is simply one "possibility" for your Ollie SIMPSON. You have included NO dates so there is no way for me to know one way or the other. Dwelling 102-120 SIMPSON, Hiram, 24, mar. 1, mar. 3 yrs, b. kY; parents b. KY . .Arlenia, wife, 22, mar. 1, mar. 3 yrs, 2 born; 2 living, b. KY; parents b. KY . .Ollie, dau, 2, b. KY * * . .Oliver, son, 11 mo's, b. KY There is a 30 year old Albert SIMPSON two dwellings removed. There is a Lewis SIMPSON, 49, mar. two times, living 3 dwellings removed from Hiram. They are probably all related in some way. When you say she disappeared are you saying she walked out the door leaving her 3 children behind and disappeared or do you think she was involved in some sort of accident or harm? Since you have posted on the Leslie Co. Message Board, I am assuming there is some connection to Leslie Co. in that the children or John NAPIER were there later on. Joyce Taylor Collins La Palma, CA
