Surnames: Hoover Carrick Goss Cross Bradshaw Jenkins Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/jMB.2ACE/819.1 Message Board Post: I don't know of any solid connection here, but I have a Jennie maiden-name-unknown Bradshaw, mother or stepmother of "Villa?" Hoover. Jennie was born calc cir 1848, apparently born in MO. In 1920, Mansfield area, Wright Co, MO, she was listed as "mother-in-law", age 72, living with Jacob (Jake) Hoover, age prox 47, and wife 'Villa?', age prox 41, and their five kids. Any chance that Jennie might be the widow of, or other relation of, your William? Place and dates are interesting..... Linda Schreiber
