In Reply to: RICHARD HENRY MCKOWN 1875-1930 by Arthur William McKown of 441

I did a little looking and this is what I found. You may already have this info.


Census 1900
Lincoln Twp., Atchison Co., Missouri

Clark, Thomson Head Apr 1846
Sarah E Wife Oct 1853
Henrey E Son Apr 1873
Alvin A Son May 1875
McKowen, Richard Servant Mar 1875 Farm Labor
Dixion, Henry F-in-Law Feb 1826


Census 1910
Colfax Twp., Page Co., Iowa

Name age
McKown, Richard Head 35 M1 10 IO IL MO Blacksmith
Elva Wife 29 M1 10 MO VA MO
Daisy Dau 7 MO

Census 1920
Amity Twp., Page Co., Iowa

McKown, Richard Head 45 IO Blacksmith
Elva Wife 39 MO Washwoman
Dasiy Dau 16 MO Labor
Roy Son 9 IO
Arthur Son 6 MO

Census 1930
College Springs, Page Co., Iowa

McKown, Richard H 55
Elvie 40
Arthur 16



I also found a Richard Henry McKown b 29 Mar 1875 listed in the WW 1 draft card registration for Page Co., IO

The 1910 census list that this is 1st marriage for both and that they have been married for 10 years. So they must have married shortly after the 1900 census was taken. It also states that Richards parents...father was born in Illinois and his mother was born in Missouri. Also note there first child was born in Missouri. At this time I cannot find Richard in the 1880 census. He has got to be there but the surname McKown has various spellings. I know as a child they would misspell and mispronouce it when I was in school.

I would say Atchinson Co., MO and Page Co., Iowa would be a good place to start looking.

Page Co., genealogy website list these McKown marriages

McKeown, Robert to Lavina Coleman, 17 Mar 1874

McKown, Mary to Sherman Gowdie, 07 Mar 1878
McKown, Sarah to William Wilson, 01 Jan 1873

McCowen, John to Derby Epperson, 24 Dec 1868
McCowen, Mary to Alexander Sum, 08 Jun 1878
McCowen, Noah to Lucinda Griswell, 29 Oct 1874
McCowen, Sylvester to Susan Love, 06 Jan 1870


Also Atchison Co., MO is a neighboring Co., of Page Co., IO


I hope some of this info is helpful. If I run acrossed anything else I will forward it your way.
