I know this "Weight" surname is Waits in this case - it could also be Wait or Waite. The children born in during or before the 1870 census year for Phelps Co. "match" the above 1880 list. Thomas Waits was in Phelps Co, MO in the 1870 census living two townships away from his brother John F Waits. Thomas moved from Phelps Co to Dent Co. between 1870 and 1880. I can not find Thomas or his wife Elizabeth Jane Waits (Maiden name unknown) after the 1880
census. I would like any information about them and their 7 children before or after 1880 in Dent Co. (death records, birth records, marriage records, family files, etc.) Any help very much appreciated. Thanks, Bert Waits
