In the 1880 census, Samuel and Nancy are at Family 333 in Scott Township, Bourbon County, Kansas.Family 332 is headed by Bradley and Lucinda Kennison.She was born Lucinda Bomar, a daughter of one of the several John Bomars from the Hardin - Hart - LaRue part of Kentucky.(You can see that John Bomar -- surname spelled Bowmar -- in the 1850 census, District 68, Pettis County, Missouri, page 138.Google the Missouri Census Images site hosted by RootsWeb and Ed & Sandy Mackley and you'll be able to see a copy of the original census page 138.)It appears that Bradley and Lucinda had at least three children; however, I have not seen any grandchildren in census or other records.Are there descendants?My interest is in Bomar (often also spelled Bomer, Bowmar, and Bowmer); not Kennison, by the way.And I have had MUCH trouble sorting out Lucinda's extended Bomar family.
