8-18-02 At the FW Census,  I found Zachari ah on the 1900 Iowa Census.
Centropolis VillageTwp., Franklin County. ED 76, Sheet 11. He is listed
as T. J. Kness. (It doesn't help that he has so many C hristian names)
Once I found him listed as "Lackrick" - obviously a misspell ing from the
census taker.

Kness. I noticed sever al of the children were born in differentstates:
MO, IA, NB, KS. Did the fam ily move that much or did the mother go to
family to have the baby?
