Samuel Overfield ( Alice Frutchey and A. Overfield) PA

I am sorry but I made major errors in my post of last night and I don't even have a good excuse. here is the correction:
Samuel Overfield was born in March of 1866 in PA according to the 1900 Jones Co., IA census-not in 1811 as I posted. (This date was on his wife's side...)Obviously he was *not* in Iowa by 1856, also as I had posted. The 1900 census was the earliest I found him in Iowa. The parents are as I posted but I have not been able to locate them. Searching for Samuel takes me to Monroe Co. but I don't know which Samuel is the correct one. I am thinking perhaps "Alice" is his mother's middle name and the one she was called but legally went by her first name...? "A" Overfield takes in a lot of ground as well. Does anyone have a clue on this family? Thank you!
