11.  James R. NAVE, b. 1853 {1860: 6, MO; 1870: 15, MO}; m. Keziah "Kezzie" BILLINGS
There is a seven-year gap here.
12.  Abraham NAVE, Jr., b. 30 Oct 1860; d.s.p. bef. 1870

Even granting that Elizabeth married young, a 35-year span of fecundity is extraordinary!  I wonder if Abraham's birthdate is correct or, if so, if he is really their son.

Child with Elizabeth ROOS:
13.  Dwight NAVE, b. Sep 1883, Jackson Co., MO  {1900: 16, MO}

There should be two males in the 1830-35 age class; yet, I don't doubt that this Abraham is our subject.  Listed five lines down from Abraham's father, William NAVE

Living next door to their son, John H. NAVE (æ 27, b. TN), who is living two doors down from another John NAVE (æ 31, b. TN).  Note that the family did not live in the city of Independence as some have said — the enumeration of the city of Independence is in another section of the census.  They lived in the countryside, in Blue Township; Independence was simply the town to which they drove/rode to pick up their mail.

It's likely that the informant for this record was not Elizabeth, which probably explains the errors in it.
