I could be wrong, but I was thinking it was off hwy 47 near Koch's Store. William Nephew's parents were Vieto and Hortense Dupien Nephew. In 1876 in St. Louis City Directory, William was living on Potomac and was a driver. William and Mary Lucille Nephew's children were; Agnes, Ella, Annie, Frank, John (who lived in DeSoto most of his live with his wife Stella Pickett), Clara, James, Thomas and Bertha. Trecia DeGonia b 1865 married Fred Wilson. Their children were Thomas, Leo and Firman. I have a picture of Trecia and Fred Wilson that their son Tommie gave me years ago. He is deceased now.
