Deborah

I was searching Ashley County when I came across your post. This may be old information, but just in case I’ll post a response to your query:

1900-Ark-Ashley-Portland-ED 15-Sheet 9A:

Lewis, Jane Head BF ---1856 44 WD 13-8 AL AL AL
Kerr, Sophronia Dau BF Jan 1876 24 WD 1-1 AR
Estella Grn-Dau Aug 1893 3 AR
Lewis, Arthur Son Apr 1882 18
Savannah Dau Aug 1887 12
Pearlie Dau Oct 1889 10
Mattie Dau Feb 1891 8
Rosabella Dau Mar 1895 5

Jane is a widow and eight of her thirteen children are living. She was born in Alabama.

Sheet 8A:

Adams, Pleas Head BM Mar 1875 25 M5 AR Unk Unk
Minerva Wife BF June 1878 22 M5 3-3
Robert Son Feb 1896 4
Bertha Dau Apr 1898 2
Joe A. Son Apr 1900 1/12
Lewis, Pearly Nurse(?) ??? 1890 10

The task now is to locate the family in 1880:

1880-AR-Ashley-Portland-T9 0038-Page 149B:

Joseph Lewis Self M Male B 30 AL SC AL
Jane Wife M F B 25 AL
John Son 8 AR
Elizabeth Dau 6
Safronia Dau 4
Maria Dau 2 (b. ca 1878)

Could Maria actually be Minerva? This is certainly Jane of the 1900 census, but her husband is Joseph not Alex.


Alabama now appears to be of research interest.

Hope you are still there.
Preston
