    1. [MOPIKE-L] 1880 Census: Keith, Beck [Was: Canada Surname]
    2. You caught me while I had the right CD in for Missouri. This is from the 1880 census CD. You say "had" -- does this mean you no longer have it? My friend has a line in Pike co around that time: George Rason/Razin KEITH m 2nd 1856 [prob Pike co] to Margaret Ann CANNADY; land record places him in Jennings co, IN on 15 Mar 1837, but George and 1st wife Sarah "Sallie" DARNEL moved some time after that, and he was listed in 1840, 1850 and 1860 census as living in Peno Township, Pike co, MO. He apparently died 1900, so I suspect he would be in the same area circa 1880. Margaret possibly died before 1892 [marriage date of George to third wife Sarah Jane (EPPERSON) SINCLAIR]. George had 20 children with his three wives, and I can furnish names and some other info on request. Tandy Holdman KEITH [son of George and Margaret (CANNADY) KEITH] born 24 Jan 1868 in Pike co, MO. Married 17 Nov 1894 to Rebecca Ruyle HESKETT/ HASKETH. She may be listed with her parents' family in the area, too. They had 2 sons and a daughter. My friend's BECK line -- James Washington BECK and May Finette PARKS -- he didn't move to Pike county until after 1887, so would not be in Louisiana, MO in the 1880 census, of course. They had 3 sons, and after Nettie ran off with Oliver GARRETT, she had another son, probably in the Van Buren co, IA area. James and Nettie's son Carroll Alexander BECK m 1905 in Farber, Audraine co, MO to Iretta Margaret CLARK, and their 11 children were all born in Louisiana, MO. I am looking for the census info of course, if you still have the CD, but I have mentioned all the rest of this, in case anyone else can make a connection with these lines. Thanks for taking the time to read, Alie
