      Name: Benjamin H. Cason
      Home in 1880: Cedar, Callaway, Missouri
      Age: 43
      Estimated Birth Year: abt 1837
      Birthplace: Missouri
      Relation to Head of Household: Son
      Spouse's Name: Malinda J.
      Father's birthplace: Kentucky
      Mother's Name: S. J.
      Mother's birthplace: Kentucky
      Occupation: Works At Tank
      Marital Status: Married
      Race: White
      Gender: Male
      Household Members:
      Name Age
      S. J. Cason 52
      Benjamin H. Cason 43
      Malinda J. Cason 39, at poor farm
      Martha V. Cason 3, at poor farm
      Annie E. Cason 13

      1880 - His wife and youngest daughter, even tho listed at home, it said on census "living at poor farm". I did find them both listed seperately at the poor farm. Son George, who was 16, was living with a Dixon family, working on their farm as a laborer.

      In 1900, he is living with his mother, listed as an invalid. Also listed as a widower, but I believe his wife is still alive, just not with him anymore. The 1900 census had some wrong information, age of his mother, number of children she had, etc.

      He died in the county infirmary (formerly the county poor house) and was buried there. There are no other records of the cemetery there.
