Andrew & Rena Mincer of Poweshiek Co., IA

More about Andrew Mincer: He was probably a son of John and Minerva Mincer because he was living in their household in 1860 in Randolph Co., IN.Besides Andrew (age 20), there were younger children:Weller, Fidella, Hannah J., and Sarah C.Also, Mary Wilkens (75, born PA) was in their household - possibly Minerva's mother?
By 1880, Andrew had married and moved his wife & children to Poweshiek Co., IA.His mother (?) Minerva (Wilkens?) died there in June 1883.Probably Andrew moved his family from Iowa to Missouri (where?) soon after that.Andrew's oldest son was Elisha, but have found no trace of him after the 1870 census when he was 10.Need to find marriages of his daughters & names of any children born after 1880.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
