I have a copy of an index for the 1900 Census for Madison City, Lake County, South Dakota.It lists a George A. Vodden, b Feb, 1892 in South Dakota with father's birthplace as Canada, Eng. (possibly this means he was born in England and emigrated to Canada).On this census, it also lists Abbie J. Vodden, his mother as the head of the household, b. Apr,1856 in Illinois.It shows her as widowed, a mother of 4 children with only 2 living.Birthplace of her father is Vermont and of her mother is New York.There is another child listed as a son of hers but with a different last name, Guy C. Gregory, b. Dec 1878 in Iowa.For him it also lists his father as being born in Canada, Eng. and mother as Illinois, being Abbie.
I also have a copy of the 1905 South Dakota State Census which shows George still living at home with his mother, Abbie.The one other piece of information is that Abbie has been in South Dakota for 21 years in 1905.
Hope this is of some help!Linda
