Use the free search tool at: https://familysearch.org/search to find additional records by plugging in names/date ranges/locations etc. of siblings/parents etc.

Stephen and Lucy, parents of Orin, Denver, Homer etc.  appears to be .'James S'.  In the 1900 census they are living in the household next to Stephen and Rosanna, who appear to be the parents of  James S.

Answer 2

Lucy Gertrude was my grandmother.  James Stephen(Bud) and Lucy their parents. Bud was an only child.  His parents James Stephen (from Glynn Co Georgia) and Rosanna (Staggs) (possibly from Clay Indiana) Great great grandpa served in the Civil War 1863 First Light Artillery Me-Po (?) There is also a Stephen Pilcher, Glynn Co Georgia listed in the Reconstructed1790 Census of Ga.  I believe that after Orin died, his brother Denver married his widow. Some of the family moved to Lauderdale Co Tennessee before WW I  Have little more info if you want more  Also Homer was a female.  Sorry I keep remembering points of interest.  I have a copy of photo of the entire family--Orin and all siblings  with parents and grandparents

Would love to have any photos you have, Orin was my grandfather.
