Margaret and anyone else interested, I can correct the spelling to Mary Ann SALEE reference her signature on marriage records. Also have seen reference in census records to her birth in Tennessee and her parents in Missouri. Also, Joseph Czar and Mary BLAND and family were in Little Rock, Thurston County, WA for the 1900 census.Marion and his children moved to Summit (later McCleary), Chehalis County (Grays Harbor after 1915), WA after the census. The Stoddard County references are only to Marion Ellsworth BLAND and Ettie HAMPLEMAN BLAND and their three children. Reference is "Hamplemans in America" by Reverend Glenn HAMPLEMAN. Having only copies of pages referring to Marion and Ettie and children, I have no idea what or where his sources are. Thought someone might be able to point me to something that was different than the US Census. Again, thanks for the info. Wilma
