      I am need to find some clues on L.M.Prewett, possibily spelled Pruitt. My grandfather was Lola Richardson Pruitt they called him Richard or Buster for short, his father was suppose to of died in 1906 one year after he was born, the death took place in MO. His mother was Ada Singleton out of TN, she moved to MO with an Uncle or Aunt. And I have marriage on them, I also have marriage to other woman for L.M.Prewett, that would be Fannie Turnpin and Maudie Sivill or Sinill, but definatly not Swills. Ada was married and pregnant with a child when she married Ed Meadows. We find them under the 1910 census, living under the Meadows name in Butler County, MO. This is a tuff one, so please any information will be a blessing.

      1910 St. Francois, Butler Co., MO
      MEDDERS, Edward 37 married 4 years AR/MO/MO
      Ada 2nd marriage
      Richard 5 MO/MO/TN (even tho listed under stepfather's last name, has biological father's birthstate)
