Darius Elijah Elisha James Reyburn

March 29, 2012
Big confusion and too tired to figure it out tonight. Will document conflict and work on it another time:

Thought I found Darius in the 1900 Census in the home of his son Adam K Reyburn (census in Davis, Lafayette, MO); name is spelled Raeper, but everything else about family fits. (See post about Adam Kemp or Adam Kenneth Reyburn dated 3/25/2012).

However, Darius Reyburn is in 1900 Census with Jesse Esrey, Crooked River, Ray, MO; where he has been most of his earlier life.

Also, newfamilysearch.org has a Darius Elisha Reyburn born 1843 to Darius Elisha Reyburn and Caroline Elizabeth Neale. I sent email to contributor asking for more information about two Darius's.

Today I found several records that all could be the same person, but I don't have definitive proof that they are.  This is a summary of what I found:

Record already in my files, of which the source is one of my old contacts Joanne Halterman:

Darius Elijah (Elisha) James Reyburn, born October 1823, Boone Missouri, died 1923.
Son of Adam Collins Reyburn, born 1798, Kentucky and Elsie Kice (Kise) born 1798.
