ACCORDING TO THE 1900 CENSUS BENJAMIN AND LYDIA[B. DEC 1854] MEADS HAD ONLY BEEN MARRIED 4 YRS, WHICH FITS THE MARRIAGE LIC TIMEFRAME YOU REFER TO ...
ALL THESE CHILDREN ARE BORN BEFORE THEIR MARRIAGE
I ALSO NOTE THAT
SON HOWARD AGE 18 IS SHOWN AS BORN FEB 1882 IN PENN
SON FRANK AGE 18 IS SHOWN BORN FEB 1882 IN ILLINOIS
