Dear Lori,
I didn't have access to the 1870 Census but I did search the Indiana
State Records as well as the 1850 Boone County Census and this is what I
found. The first birth record is under the name Rud. This is not an
uncommon mistake for transcribers to make. Many times the cursive double e
as in R "ee" d is misread as a "u". I included the index of all the
Reed,
Rude, and Bohannon families I could find in the 1850 Boone County Census.
Although, your Cora and Frank or Franklin probably were not born yet in 1850,
it is possible their famiies were already in Boone County. Do you know their
parents or siblings names? I hope some of this helps. The transcribed 1850
Boone County Census is available at the Indiana GenWeb Site. Just use the
index to search the appropriate page and it will show you the name, age,
occupation and state or country of birth of each person. If I can help you
any further, please, let me know.

Lori, I did not find any record of a marriage in Boone County, Indiana for
Frank and Cora. Is it possible that they were married elsewhere and moved
there sometime later?
