I think the census taker was very confused if this is the right Hannah. Sarah is her daughter-in-law, not daughter and if she and David have been married 29 years, the children are theirs but no idea who the grandchildren belong to - but they are probably David's grandchildren. In searching the births on familysearch.org, I find a birth for: Chas Fredk Stephens, 10/15/1885 Lewis Stephens on 4/20/1890 both in Center, Monroe, OH to David W Stephens and Sarah EMcMasters 1900 Center, Monroe, OH # 86 Stephens, Hannah head 1/1823 wd 7-7 children WV Ireland Ireland David W husband 7/1845 m 29y Penn Wales Penn Sarrah E da 10/1866 s OH PA WV Ella M da 3/1872 s OH PA WV Mollie da 8/1881 OH PA WV Charles O son 10/1885 OH PA WV Louis E son 4/1891 OH PA WV Clarence grandchild 7/1892 OH PA WV Chester A grandchild 4/1896 OH PA OH Cecil M gandchild 3/1899 OH PA OH
