I'm still on the journey. I've been searching through census records. I'm trying to locate where some of my ancestors lived. I hope to find some new clues to follow up on.
Here's a blog I posted on another site. The idea come from Genealogy Café via facebook
~ Beginning
I began my search in 2021 thinking about Francis (Ovington) Dade and her children. Francis was my 2nd Great Grandmother. She was listed as having 14 children on the 1900 Missouri Census in which seven were living at that time. I was wondering, who was that 7th child? And who were the other seven?
Over the years, I’ve been searching for every DADE in the Lewis County Missouri. I’ve been compiling information. I have come across seven of Francis’ children. Isaac Dade was the husband of Francis.
First on my list is my Great Grandmother, Charlotta Dade Lankford / Lankfard. It was on July 31, 2008 when I received Charlotta’s death record. Her parents Isaac and Francis were listed as witnesses to Charlotta’s and her husband Lewis / Robert Lankford’s marriage in 1873.
I discovered other children of Isaac and Francis; Louis Dade and Mary Ann Madison through their death records. On May 8, 2010, a searcher help me discover that Louisa Washington was a DADE. This was another breakthrough.
It was through news paper articles, city directories, and Find A Grave when I discovered the connections between Ben Dade, Criedly Green and Isaac Dayd . This came last year and within the past few years with verification. I have DNA matches * with some of Francis’ descendants.

Now, my journey is set to for 2021. I’ve been updating info on the known Dade children. I have the listed below of the ones I hope to discover more on. They lived in Lewis County Missouri area.
George Dade
There were two of them. Which one?

She was wife of John Williams. They married on Nov 28, 1871 in Lewis County Missouri.
