Notes:
                   In a Bible I found a note about Soloman's Family.  It acounts for all the children expect William and Lucy Belle.  It list all children and if they were dead of alive.  This is the note;
Soloman F Funk - died in Shohomish, Washington
Ellen Nora Smith - Born Feb 24 in Kansas - Died Oct 1900 in Washington
           Snohomish, Cemetery
Children- Rufus, Elliot Funk - gone
Clara M. Funk Gibson - gone
Alpus - gone
Lulu - 
Willie Allen, born in Ill. - Died
Lucy May - gone
Harvey - gone
Ethel
Lester
Nora
Stella - Passed away  I have a copy of this note in my file.

I have since checked my Census to find that all these children except Stella, are listed, the first four on the 1880 census, and the rest on the 1900 census.  Stella is listed on a family note in the family records as being their last child.  So I think we're there on who is and is not their children.

This couple married in 1869, in Berry, Pike, Illinois.  They lived there till sometime after1886.  They then moved to Wallace, Lincoln, Nebraska.  In Washington,  Shohomish, and Everett are mentioned which is where they moved next.    Need to see a map.
