Thanks, I forgot to add the birth name, it is LUKE. HE is AA. I believe he might be with relatives. I just dont know the relatives. I see his father Ben Easter and Luke's son Ed Easter listed. Ed is not in Lauderdale COunty, he is in Sharkey County, MS. It is possible Luke and his own family traveled and remain "missing and lost" for 1900. My family tree is incomplete!!!!! That is terrible. Any close again. AM trying to tell me story here and when I add too much information, someone says take it off, then I add too little information. Darn, how confusing, when I was rolling it went high, not anymore. My faith in God is they will return to me under an Easter variation surnames. But for now, I think I should just quit and back it up, they are not in Lauderdale COunty for 1900 and I need a clue. This really hurts me bad. Good Bye!~~~~~ Karen
