Addendum to Hess query;
David McBride married Nancy Jane Hamilton in 1844. Some of the children they had together, according to an 1860 US census are: Andrew, Lavisa, Sarah, Thomas D, John C, and Mary. Flora Belle was reportedly their youngest being born around 1870.

I am surmising McBride is a surname of a relative or perhaps his mother's maiden name that was passed along to David Hess as a middle name.

On a Rootweb site for Ripley County I found the following Hess names listed on a page about marriage licenses issued in that county:
HESS, Hannah Lewis Hunter 30Aug1849
HESS, John Nancy Ayres 14June1849
HESS, Mary Thomas Grimes 01Jan1843
HESS, Matthias Phebe Brunner 20June1847
HESS, Peter Melissa Purcell 24Nov1844
HESS, Thomas Laurena (M.Lester) 05March1839

Unfortunately, it doesn't share parent's names to help me leapfrog from there in my research.
