I have tried many variations and no luck. I found Chester in the 1885 Iowa state census living with his mother, Mary J(ane) Horton and siblings where he was described as divorced. But no Anna Bell and Luella May anywhere so far. We know Chester married a 2nd time in 1887 and went to Kansas where he was in 1895, again being shown as divorced which is correct as he was divorced a 2nd time in 1892--have divorce papers. In 1895, Luella May is shown as Mary L. and living with her grandmother, Mary Jane Horton in Hardin Co., Iowa. Nothing on Anna Bell, though. Anna Bell married Frank Bryant in 1891 or 1892 in Hardin County, IA and is shown in the Hardin Cou! nt! > y, Iowa census in 1900; Luella May went to Kansas and was living with her father, Chester Horton, in Ottawa Co.,KS. But where in the world were these people in 1880 and the females in 1885? My own little puzzle. > Ella Mae Schmidt > ===== > If you would prefer digest mode to mail mode, drop a note to roots-admin@rootsweb.com and ask for the digest... > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to ROOTS-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
