I didn't really think they were the family you were looking for. It
seems that some of your family is as hard to locate as mine. You know
where they should be but they aren't. Probably thought the census taker
was a "revenuer" and hid out. *<]:oD

I had another thought. I retried with just HOLIDAY in Mo in 1920. Came
back with 28 results ranging in age from 20 to 78 [ seems odd there are
none younger than 20 ???]. None that looked like obvious misspellings of
Isaac or Newton or Julia [ wrong wife - should read closer ]. There is
one "Lillie HOLLIDAY" but she is only five living with her grandmother
Laura Rubin (sp). [ Anyone know any other nicknames for either Frances
or Lillian? ]

Anything else got any ideas what else to try??
