Nellie M Clark married Creighton W White. I need help with finding info on Nellie's dad -Grant Clark (b 1874 d 1906). Her death certificate says his name was U.S.Clark. Which I can't find anywhere. I finally found them on the 1900 census ( he was transcribed as Grace. So Grant, Alice and Nellie are in Lancaster Ward 5, Fairfield in 1900. He is 26. so I should be able to find him on the 1880 census. The only Grant of the correct age I can find is the son of Lucy A, living in Lancaster. she has 2 sons, Charley and Grant and a daughter Francis. widowed- Would anyone know what happened to this Grant? My problem is on the 1900 census it states Grant's mother was born in Ohio and on the 1880 it says Lucy was born in Va. so is it his mom? How much credit do I give to the 1900 census? Would you have any ideas on how to match up the family in 1880 to the 1900 family? Grant died in 1906 so I can't get a death certificate and no one could find an obit.I'd appreciate any help or ideas. thanks Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
