I agree! My grandmother, Edna GLITSCH, was born in Cincinnati in 1894, and both her parents (Andrew GLITSCH and Emma Sophie NIEMEYER) had died by 1903. So, when I couldn't find them in the 1900 Hamilton County census, I was really sad --- until I found them in Kenton County, KY! It was wonderful to see the only evidence of the family while it was still intact. So, check out those counties!
