I cannot find him in the 1900 census. He may have been working out of the area, perhaps even in Ohio or West Virginia.
Notes for Kansas Wilson
She is buried under a triple stone in with her son Frank and his wife Maudie, as Kansas Nickels, Grandma, with the dates June 6, 1881 - Sep 17, 1976”.
Census records, though, are more consistent with a birthdate in 1882. (The 1900 census listed her as age 17 born July 1882, and listed her parents as having been married 18 years.)

1920 census of Bourbon Co., Ky, North Middletown precinct, enumerated 28 Jan, lists on p. 14B as family #205:
Fraley, M.B., 57; Kansas, wife, 35. Both born Ky Ky Ky.
The draft registration for her son Sherman, recorded in Sep 1918, listed his nearest relative as Kansas Nickel, North Middletown, Ky, and I cannot find any other match for her in 1920. Should check marriage records in Bourbon, Rowan, Morgan and Elliott Counties for 1918-1919 to see if there is a marriage record for M. B. Fraley and Kansas Nickell. (The husband may be Maston B. Fraley born Nov 1859, who went by M.B.)
