A Wilson Family Tree
Notes for Missouri Reeves
She apparently had a nickname of Dhu within the family (from letters in the Leonard Collection of the State Historical Society of Missouri Manuscript Collection).
Bob Reeves says she lived in Memphis, TN, and then moved as a widow with two children to Cincinnati.
Children Adolph and Mary come from Bob Reeves, who did not have the other children. Edith comes from the 1860 census. She is not listed with the family in 1870, but I'm not sure it's the right family listing (John and Maria Ainsley, living in Memphis, TN; the children are listed as Bernard and Meme, which could conceivably be weird spellings for Menard and Mary). Eugenia is from the SpenReeve family tree. I don't know where that information is from, but I suppose Missouri could have been in Todd County visiting her brother or something like that. In the 1900 census, Missouri Ainslie said she had two living children, which would be Adolph and Mary. It's hard to read how many children she had had, though; it looks like 2 with 4 written over it. Four children would fit the family as listed here. The SpenReeve family tree has two other children, Lucy L. and Adelina (actually should be Adelma). They are from the 1880 census, but it turns out that they were children of John's brother George Ainslie. Not sure where George and his wife were in 1880, but apparently their children were staying with his mother.
