I found your Clarence P. Heck, he is b. 1848. I will send some documents to your email address.

Here is Clarence's daughter, it looks like Goldby but on the census it looks like Goldie or Goldia. I will send the original to your email, but here is the "printer friendly" short version -

Missouri Birth Records, 1851-1931 Missouri Birth Records, 1851-1931
Name:        Goldby Heck
Birth Date:        21 Jun 1887
Birth County:        Grundy
Birth Location:        Galt, MO
Race/Ethnicity:        White
Gender:        F (Female)
Mother's Name:        Anna m Heck
Mother's Age:        28
Father's Name:        Clarence Heck
Father's Age:        39

This has to be your family because Anna's maiden name is Musgrave. Here is the 1900 census for this family -

1900 United States Federal Census 1900 United States Federal Census

Age:        52
Estimated Birth Year:        abt 1848
Birthplace:        Pennsylvania
Relationship to head-of-house:        Head

Household Members:        
Name        Age
Clarence P Heck 52
Anna M Heck        42
Julia J Heck        18
Goldia I Heck        12

Clarence is a farmer, Anna is a dressmaker. Clarence born in Pennsylvania March 1848, Anna born in Illinois Feb. 1858. Children Julia born Sept 1881, Goldia born Jun 1887. Clarence's parents born in Germany, Anna's father born Indiana, mother born Illinois.

From the 1850 census for Sterling Twp, Wayne Co PA, Clarence's father is John Heck, b. abt. 1821 (in PA according to the census), farmer; mother is Juley (might be misspelled), b. abt 1825; siblings are Margaret, b. abt 1845, and Harriet, b. abt 1847, both in PA.

Listed below John's family is Phillip Heck, age 68, b. Germany, and Christina Heck, age 67 - so what do you suppose are the chances these are John's parents? :)

1865 finds John's family in Ottawa Twp, Franklin Co KS. Here is the list with ages:

John, 44, b. PA, farmer
Julia, 38, b. GER
M.A., 19, b. PA (who we know is Margaret)
Harriet, 18, b. PA
C.P., 15, b. PA (who we know is Clarence)
M.E., 15, F, b. PA
W.C., 13, M, b. PA
S.A., 11, F, b. PA
G.E., 8, M, b. PA (Is this your George?) If so, not b. 1865, more like 1857ish)
C.S., 6, can't tell gender, b. KS (1860 census says "Male")
E.C., 1, F, b. KS

That's about all I can find for now, I am sending you the two documents I spoke of, the other ones won't be hard to find if you want them. I can search more at another time; I work the night shift, and it's time for bed! :)

Rose Beebe
P.S. My Hecks are from Virginia (Germany originally, or so we think)
