Duncan Township, Sullivan Co, MO:  (2 Jun 1880)

Thomas, Margaret (age 39) with children Alda (19), Annie (14), Cora (12) and son Adrien (11)
Note also that living next door was
Warren McCullough (age 40) and wife Josephine (age 30), with daughter Elfie (age 11), Annie (age 9),
Bertha (age 7) and son Gird (age2)
and Joseph Hubbard (soon to be husband of Alda Thomas

Looks like a romance to me!
They were married sometime in 1880 but apparently after June 2nd!

1880


1900 Census Records
Duncan Township, Sullivan Co., MO. Recorded 1 June 1900.

Hubbard, Alda G. (age 38 & (widowed or married?) )
with children Emery (14), Fay G., Ada V., A???? B. [Anna B.] (4) and Joseph (1)
Sons Noel (see 1910 census) and Euel are not present. 
Alda had been married 20 years so they were married about 1880.  As of 1900, 7 of 8 children were alive.  The 7 are Noel, Euel, Emery, Fay G., Ada Vea, Anna Belle and Joseph.  Perhaps the 8th child died at birth?

Since Joseph Hubbard died in 1944 in Montana, perhaps Joseph had moved from Missouri to Montana on this date in which the census was taken.  Family history suggests that their move northwest to Montanawas at about that 1900. The letter after Alda's age appears to be a M (for married) rather than a W (for widowed.)
