Gayle, I've done a little work on your problem with finding George W. Stephens after 1900. I assume that he is the 4 year old boy in the household of Marion n. and Mary E Stephens in Jackson Co, Bird Twp with sibblings Ammon/Ameron 14 and Louella 7. If not, then disregard the rest of this email. In 1910 they are in Jackson Co, Bird Twp A. M Stephens 72 married four times MO KY Maryland Mary 51 married one time 19 years mother of 2 children/2 living MO IL United States Louella 17 Ark George 14 Ark There is a marriage record in Jackson Co for M. E. Matney to A.M. Stephens on Nov 1 , 1891 which lines up to this family perfectly. . Ameron/Ammon, the oldest child shown in the 1900 census (apparently a child from Marion's aka A. M.) previous marriage) married a lady by the name of Zennetly J. Williams Jan 31,, 1909 and I know I saw a census reading for him there in Jackson Co. Okay...here is the censu for Ammon in 1910: Ammon 33 Nettie 25 Andrew 8 and 6/12 Kelmer 5 7/12 Herbert 2 and ?2/12 BTW...in earlier censuses, there is another Ammon Stephens in the area who I would assume is this kid's uncle...brother to Marion aka A. M. Stephens. In 1920 Jackson Co, Bird/Byrd Township, I found the following who may be your George: George Stevens age 22 Ark Rosa 19 (can't read where she was born) I did not see a marraige record in the Jackson Co information on line for George and Rosa, so possibly they married in a nearby county. Bird Twp was one of the northern twps of Jackson Co and it's possible that Rosa was from one of the counties that surrounded Jackson near Bird Twp. Records for these families were found using both the spelling Stephens and Stevens. . **************It's Tax Time! Get tips, forms, and advice on AOL Money & Finance.
