Lots and lots of Beards.....something for you to know is some Beard familys were foster homes to children.Some children came from Germany.Some foster records burned 1920s and it was very common for familys to over produce children.This began the "Orphan Train" in 1850s to 1920s.There is a sight and info on that.
I suggest, if you haven't already tried, www.familysearch.org an LDS sight but free census search and this help me out alot.
