Lanita Thanks so much for your generous offer. My grandfather Charles O NUTTER married my grandmother Lydia Ruanna SALMON December 1900 - they had 3 girls - and he deserted the family and she divorced him in 1914. I have never found a census on this family. They lived in Daviess county. Lydia married again to William Daniel England in 1914 and they had one girl and I have never found them on a census. Any help you may be able to offer would be greatly appreciated.
