1900 York Twp Fulton Co OH census, pg 220A, Repository: Dallas TX Pub. Lib.

'... Viers, Edward, ... Husb, ... married 25 yrs ... Melvin, ... wife ... married 25 yrs'

Andrew Viers was born in Apr 1878, the same month in which Edward's 1st wife, Lydia, died. Although it is possible there was a divorce & it just happened Andrew Viers was born by the 2nd wife in the same month the 1st wife, Lydia, died,but it is more probable Lydia died giving birth to Andrew.

I believe the 25 yrs of marriage recorded on the 1900 census is wrong.

I appears Edward Viers is illiterate based on the marriage license of his daughter Harriet. The copy on record has Edward hisXmark Viers. Also, the name of the daughter is Harriat but the J.P. spelt it Harriet.
