By the 1900 Richmond Township, Ray County, Missouri, I've lost him. The census has Margaret MCCOLLUM as head of household, but I'm unable to read the relation. I don't know if she's a widow or if James is just out of the picture. In the 1910 Richmond Township, Ray county, Missouri, Margaret is listed as a widow, and living with her daughter Gertrude. Looking for any help in locating the descendants of Margaret and James MCCOLLUM. I am related through their daughter Emma.
