Wood/Woods family help

I've been helping my daughter-in-law start her family history. I've been doing my genealogy for 25+ years, & I tell ya, this is the hardest 'find' I've had...

She has very little info on her family. She did have her grandfather's name, Monroe Woods, & that Monroe died when her father was a teenager. I ended up finding him in the SS death index, & found him buried in the National Cem at Fayetteville, AR. He was born 1917 in Izard Co, AR. I found he & his parents in the 1920 census - my luck, his parents were listed as J A & L A Woods. Monroe is listed as M C. So I went on to the 1930 census & found them listed there as 'Jervey' Woods & 'Louie' Wood. After closer inspection, I decided 'Jervey' was actually 'Jessey' born 1890. He isn't listed in the SS death index, but I did find a WWI draft card for him stating he was born in Pineville, Izard Jan 26 1890. He died Dec 1, 1957 Bradford, AR. His name is actually Jesse A Woods.

I have been page by page several times thru the 1900 & 1910 census, I can't find 'em! I have a feeling they are under one of the pages with the black blobs - unreadable.

If anyone knows of Jesse's family, can you drop me a note?
