Childers in 1870 Jefferson Twp., Scotland Co., MO cen
In an attempt to find the parents (William and Mary Childers) of Squire Henry Childers born Oct. 1, 1836 in Franklin Co., Missouri, I have been scanning the census.
Although I have not found what I am looking for, I hope the following info helps another Childers' seeker.

This census taken didn't use full given names only initials most of the time although he chose to write out the surname on each line. Not too helpful.--Sharon
