Searching for information and/or descendants of two of the sons of James 'Kernel' Ogle and his wife Mattie Nichols of Noble County, Ohio: Homer Ogle, b. abt 1884, probably in Noble County, and Harry Clement Ogle, b. 1888 in Buffalo County, Wisconsin.

James and Mattie died sometime in the mid 1890s and left 3 or 4 children orphaned, including Harry and Homer, their sister Bessie, who married a Shaw, and possible William. I am beginning to think that William was actually Homer who changed his name when he ran away from his guardians. To prove/disprove, I'd like to find any trace of Homer after 1900. Also would like to know what became of Harry.

Thanks!

Looks like Harry might have been living with and aunt and uncle in 1900:

In case you don't have it, birth record for Harry, 1940 census record for him with children's birthplaces that give potential clues to his whereabouts in the interim period, and death record (index) form him. 

"Ohio, County Births, 1841-2003," database with images, FamilySearch(https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X6J9-57N : 22 December 2016), Harry Ogle, 06 Aug 1888; citing Birth, Alma City, Buffalo, Wisconsin, United States, county courthouses, Ohio; FHL microfilm 930,098.
