Notes for MICHAEL FECHER:
Marriage certificate has his name spelled as "Mikel"
According to the U.S. Census 1900_Arkansas_White County, Roll 80 Book 1, Page 249, Michael Fecher was born October 1849 in Indiana. His age was given as 50 years old on the census form. His mother was from Germany, but he did not know where his father was born. He rented a 70 acre farm at the time of the census. Michael Fecher was able to read, write and speak English. According to the census form, his wife was named Mary. I believe she was Mary (Gibson) Paul because some of the children listed on the census had the last name of Paul. The census shows the number of years married as being zero. This leads me to belief that they were recently married, because his last wife, Adda Lucas had died in 1897. The census form also shows that Mary was the mother of 3 children, all of whom were living at the time of this census was taken on June 6, 1900. The following children were listed on the census form:

Ray L. Fecher, born October 1888 in Arkansas. His age was stated to be 11 years old

Michael Fecher, born May 1895 in Arkansas. His age was stated to be 5 years old
NOTE: Ray and Michael were the sons of Michael's previous wife, Adda Lucas

Hattie B. Fecher, born December 1898 in Arkansas. Her age was stated to be 1 year old. She was apparently the offspring of Michael and Mary, although the census form shows both of Hattie's parents were from Indiana. Mary is listed as being born in Tennessee. Maybe the death date on Adda Lucas is incorrect and Hattie is the daughter of Michael and Adda

The following are listed as step-children on the U.S. Census 1900_Arkansas_White County, Roll 80 Book 1, Page 249

Lais W. Paul,( Louis?) born August 1891 in Arkansas. His age was stated to be 8 years old. His father was listed as being from Arkansas while his mother was listed as being from Tennessee

Nora Paul was born April 1895 in Arkansas. Her age was stated to be 5 years old. Her father was from Arkansas and her mother was from Tennessee.

It is interesting that a couple dwellings down, on the same U.S. Census 1900_Arkansas_White County, Roll 80 Book 1, Page 249, there is listed a Joseph M Fecher who is married to an Emily R. He was born Feb. 1871 in Indiana. His age is stated as 29 years old. Both of his parents were born in Indiana. Emily was born Dec/ 1870 in GA. and is listed as 28 years old.

The children of Joseph M Fecher and Emily R were

Marcus Fecher born Jan. 1896 in AR. His age was 3 years old at the time of the census

NOTE: another son's name was illegible. It looked like Altau R Fecher. He was born April 1900 in AR and was listed as one month old.

According to the U. S. Census 1910_Arkansas_White County, Roll 67 Book 3, Page 215 , Michael had been married to Mary for ten years.
