Hello Prickly Holly, Wow thanks so much! That is an amazing amount of information you have kindly found for me! It is a mystery why Reuben was put in the home poor fellow. I'm sorry to not have answered you sooner as I couldn't find how to get to my messages to answer, Cynthia has kindly guided me as I am very new to all of this. Thanks again....

If the father died in 1887, possibly mother Sarah could not afford to care for him.
It might be that the other children were old enough to work.
