May I make a suggestion? You should include some dates, or approximate dates, for at least some of the people in your query. I found what looks like your family on the 1930 census, but they are all listed as Black. If that is true you should include that in your query, too. It really helps to narrow down the search. 1930 census DeWitt Co, TX: King, Solomon, hd, 45, md @ 20 yrs of age, b TX, AL, MS " Minnie, wf, 47, md @ 22 yrs of age, b TX, TX, TX " Tessie, d, 19, b TX " Zeuable or Zenable, d, 15, b TX " John, s, 14, b TX " Charlie, s, 6, b TX Combined info from SSDI and TX Dth Idx online: King, Charlie, b 10 May 1918; d 3 Jan 1992 Bexar Co, TX; last residence San Antonio, Bexar Co, TX; SS card issued in TX. Solomon and Minnie with their children are on the 1920 census in DeWitt Co, TX. 1900 census DeWitt Co, TX: King, John, h, b Jan 1837, 63, m 26 yrs, b AL, AL, AL " Sallie, w, b Sept 1850, 49, m 26 yrs, 16 ch, 12 lvg, b AL, AL, AL " Elizabeth, d, b Sep 1873, 27, sgle, b TX " Ophelia C., d, b Jan 1883, 17, b TX " Solomon, s, b Oct 1884, 16, b TX " Lee, d, b Mar 1887, 13, b TX " Francis, d, b Mar 1889, 10, b TX " Mary L., d, b Sept 1894, 6, b TX Jackson, Sidney, grandson, b Jul 1896, 3, b TX 1880 census DeWitt Co, TX: Name Relation Marital Status Gender Race Age Birthplace Occupation Father's Birthplace Mother's Birthplace John KING Self M Male B 35 SC Farmer SC SC Sally KING Wife M Female B 30 TN Keeps House TN TN Simon KING Son S Male B 10 TX SC TN Lizzie KING Dau S Female B 8 TX SC TN Emma Elan KING Dau S Female B 7 TX SC TN Amanda T.
