Looking into the connections between these three families in nearby Missouri
locations, data from census of 1870:

(1)1870 Missouri Clay County (844) - City of Kearny (PO Liberty, Missouri)

Robert W. Pounds 33 WM Shoemaker Born: at sea
Mary E. 21 WF born: Missouri
Mary M 4 WF born: Missouri
Elnora 2 WF born: Missouri
Laura 4/12 WF born: Missouri

(2) 1870 Missouri, Caldwell Co (173) Kingston:

Thomas Pounds 29 Farm Laborer born: Ohio
Sarah 31 born: Tennessee
Maudy 10 born Missouri
George 8 born Illinois
Elliott, Elizabeth 16 born: Missouri

(3) 1870 Missouri, Caldwell Co Fairview Twp (096) Post Office: Mirabile. 13
August 1870

Charles MOWDER 36 farmer born: Ohio
Sarah [Pounds??] 27 born: Ohio
Lillie 7 born: Missouri
Mary 4 born: Missouri
Ina 2 born Misouri
Charles POUNDS 18 farm laborer born: Ohio

I'm hoping this is my great-grandfather, Charles E. Pounds, born in Ohio
April, 1852 (census data 1900, 1910 MI) whose daughter said in 1920 census -
after his death - that he was born in Missouri. Two of his daughters were
named Lillian and Maud; one of his sons was a Robert. Census data in
Detroit 1900, 1910 indicated his parents were both foreign born: father
Scotland, mother Ireland (family legend is mother was an Annie Rooney from
County Cork)
