I just checked Ancestry.com and the unreadable child is without a doubt Tennessee. I do not see Louvina. What it shows on there to me: John R 52 Sarah L 37 Andrew J 25 Bennett C 20 Russell V 18 Laura E 11 Fanny E 9 Tennessee 5 Sarah Va 5 Emma A 3 Adda F 1 I did not have Sarah Va on the list I just sent. I had not yet added her to the children I have. I did not find that child on any of my other sources and apologize for having omitted her.

HITT The 1880 Census shows John and Sarah (Quarles) living in BonneFemme Twp. with the foll children: Andrew, age 25; Bennett, age 20; Russell, age 18; Fannie, age 9; ?, age 7; Sarah, age 5; Emma, 3; Adda and Louvina, age 1. Since Sarah was 37 at the time of this census, she either gave birth at age 12 or John had a marriage prior to theirs...... Does anyone know who John was married to prior to Sarah? What is the name of the second daughter; her name was unreadable on the census record. If you'd like to try and decipher it and are using www.ancestry.com; it's image 19 of 36. Were the twin's names really Adda and Louvina? Thanks for any help you can offer......
