I did know about some of this including the connection to the Fords but was really stumped on who Martha married, where & when and I didn't know about Delia's 4th child, only the three mentioned in the Census. Jossie was my great-grandmother and what a character she was. We all called her Nanna. She had changed her name to Jeanne many many years ago. You've been a BIG help. Thanks again! Now if I can only find out what happed to Tom. Nanna never mentioned him to me or to my mother or my only living aunt on that side of the family. If anyone out there knows and see this, please post me a mesaage!

He was born to parents Henry Allen and Irene Green March 24, 1910 in Lawson, (Ray Co.) Mo. He moved to La Grande, Ore. as a youngster and it was at this time he began his lifelong passion for the railroad and steam engines. In 1923, his family moved to Toledo, and in 1933, he married Alice Murray in Toledo. In 1945, after studying refrigeration repair, he started his own business in Toledo. In 1952, he moved his family to Northern California, including Napa, Menlo Park, Palo Alto and Graton. He did appliance repair for Montgomery Wards and later worked at VanBebber Machine shop in Petaluma as a precision machinist. In 1969, he and his wife moved to Philomath. During the next 25 years he did independent refrigeration work for many small restaurants in Lincoln and Benton counties. Small bakeries, stores, restaurants, coffee shops and individuals came to depend on him for his repair skills as well as his retorts, independent thinking and ever-present overalls. He loved trains, fishing, Newport and local history. He also loved socializing at the Old World Deli in Corvallis, where he is immortalized in a hand-painted ceiling mural. He is preceded in death by his wife of 65 years, Alice; daughter, Dolores Rhines; and brother, Bill Green.

I found an Elkana Adams in Richmond Twp, Ray County, MO on the 1870. He was listed as male with parents, Thomas and Sarah and six siblings. This Elkana was 7 years old. He and one other sibling were shown as being born in Kansas. Everyone else in the household was shown as being born in Missouri. I found this family living in Leavenworth County, Kansas on the 1880 census. This time, Elkana was listed as a 16 year old female. If you check the LDS site at familysearch.com and do a search for a Elkana Adams, you will see that someone else has drawn this same conclusion probably based on the census. I hope this helps you.

I am just starting on our family genealogy and have come across the Fords in clippings passed down from my Great Grandmother. No photo's tho. I don't know if you've found anything about Elias but if you have I would love to hear it. From what I've found in the Census and from the newspapers clippings he was brother to Bob and Charley Ford. According to family stories (and backed up somewhat by the news clippings) we are descended from their sister Martha (Ford) Bolton who kept house for him around 1880. He, along with other members of that family had to testify at Frank James' trial and that can be found on the web at civilwarsstlouis.com (I think).
