I interested in the family of Richard "WILLIS" HUBBS was born on 6 Mar 1851. He died on 12 Aug 1931 married Sarah Ragan. This family should be in the 1880 Mercer Co. Census for possibly Marion Twp. or Sommerset Twp maybe Lindley twp. Two children were Mary Rachel Hubbs b. 1878 and Zona b. 1881 d. 1973. Both Mary and Zona Hubbs were marred to Douglas S. Moore (at different times) Zona was possibly previously married? Any information about these two women and their families and descendant will be very helpful. Thanks James

James, thanks so much for the information. But do you notice something strange here? Douglas Moore married Mary Rachel HUBBS Marriage Date: 16 Oct 1893 first child is Emmett Douglas MOORE Birth Date: 22 Jan 1899 Then Douglas Moore marrys Zona Q. Hubbs The Mercer Co.,Missouri Marriage Book has a Douglas Moore who married Zona Hubbs 11-Aug-1903 page G-439. first child is Flute Cecil MOORE Birth Date: 20 Nov 1899 One of these dates has to be wrong or Zona was previously married. Maybe she went by her Middle name or something Q???? Hubbs married before Nov. 1899 is this possible?? Thanks James
