Today I sourced the census data for the Harvey A. Huey family in the 1900-1920 census through three states - Wisconsin, Indiana and Michigan. Harvey was a Free Will Baptist Minister, and was married to my paternal 2nd-great grandaunt Mary A. Metzner.
Harvey and Mary appear in the 1900 census in Fon Du Lac Co., WI, the 1910 census in Noble Co., IN, and in the 1920 census in Genesee Co., MI. They had no children; and in the 1900 census, Mary's mother, Catherine (Young) Metzner is living with the family.
In each census, they are renting their homes. As of yet, I do not know what happened to them after the 1920 census.

As of yet, I do not know the relationship to Maud LaRue. Maud was aged 27, single, born in Kansas - her father born Kansas and mother born Indiana.
