Anything worh doing is worth doing right, if you have the time. I'm going to work backwards.

William's occupation looke like "Barker City" but probably isn't. He may be working with an axe to strip the bark off logs in some sort of lumber operation.
They have been married 9 years. She has borne 5, 4 still live. Both have "M1" fo rmarital status, which means 1st marriage for both.
Census taken 23 - 25 April 1910.

By now you must suspect Abbie and William met in Oklahoma.

Cornell, Abbie C, head, May 1847, Widowed,Maine, Maine, Maine,
Cornell, Frank, son, Aug 1869, Missouri, NY, Maine, farm labor
Cornell, Abbie H, dau, Aug 1882, Arkansas, NY, Maine
Cornell, Jessie, dau, Jun 1889, Arkansas, NY, Maine
Abbie b. 1847 has borne 12 children, but just 5 are still alive.
Looking at the birthplaces for Abbie b. 1882, and the birth year/month, and how close she is living to Willian N. in 1900, I'd bet large sums at long odds this is her.

1880 has two possibilities

William Tolin, Son, S, Male, W, 10, Ill, At Home, Ill, Il
Monroe Marney, Other, S, Male, W, 30, Ill, Painter, Ill, Il
The 13-year old would be my choice, but I'm just guessing. He might be there as Towlin, and the Mormon's search engine missed him, too.

Some have more dates and sources than others. I don't se eone of them with proof of who his father is. The 13-year old living with his cousin in 1880 is probably the 3-year old living with his mother and father in Monroe County in 1870, but it isn't really proof. You might write and buy a death certificate, or try for an obituary.
