  of 837

I've spent some time trying to figure out the family of Louisa A Keeney, daughter of Michael Keeney & Susannah Rawls. I've found the same children listed for:
1. Louisa A. Keeney born about 1813 in Lincoln County, KY or VA married about 1835 in VA to John M. Hancks born about 1808 in VA and died before 1860 in Osage, MO
2. John Hanks born about 1800 in Pittsylvania, VA married Jul 25, 1832 in Pittsylvania, VA to Louisa N. Rosson born about 1801 in Va and died 1889 in MO.

The children are:
1. John F b. 1837 VA
2. Joseph William b. 1839 VA m. Sep 11, 1862, Miller County, MO to Martha Livingston
3. Wadkins b. 1841 MO
4. Frederic b. May 9, 1842, MO d. Jan 16, 1940 Eldridge, Laclede, MO m. Mary E. Unknown
5. James b. 1843 MO
6. Silas b. Feb 14, 1845 Osage, MO d. Jan 14, 1893 Linn Creek, Camden, MO m. Susan Samantha Wheeler b. 1849 MO(daughter of T.B. Wheeler)
7. John M. b. 1848 MO m. Aug 13, 1871 in Miller, MO Mary Clow
8. Benjamin Franklin b. 1855 MO m. Aug 27, 1876 Chariton, MO Martha McCart
9. Leander b. 1856 MO d. 1935 Camdenton, Camden, MO m. in 1880 Camden, MO Josephine Bunch b. Sep 1860, KS d. May 26, 1939 Sikeston, Scott, MO.

1850 Census for Washington, Osage, MO - Louisa is by herself with the first seven children. Where is John?? Two more Hancks boys are born afte 1850.

1860 Census for Richwood, Miller, MO - Louisa is with five of her children and married to T.B. Wheeler with his six Wheeler children.

1870 Census for Osage, Camden, MO - Louisa is by herself, listed as a widow, using the Hanks name with John M., Frederic, Benjamin & Leander. Did Louisa divorce T.B?? A T.B. Wheeler married Sarah Jackson Oct 8, 1871 in Miller County, MO.

1880 Census for Osage, Camden, MO - Lousia is living with her son Leander listed as head of household and Daniel Hanks - 16, who is listed as Leander's nephew. Who are the parents of Daniel?

This is information I have pieced together and I'm hoping someone can help me sort it out for the facts. All information, additions or corrections will be appreciated.
