Andrew Jackson Umphreys/Humphreys/Humphrey

Surnames: Umphreys, Humphreys, Humphrey
My husband's great grandfather was Andrew Jackson Umphreys, Humphreys, Humphrey. He was born in Illinois in 1853 or 1854. The first concrete evidence I have is his marriage certificate in Moultrie Co. Illinois showing his marriage to Hannah Jane Willis on 23 Oct 1873. His name is spelled Umphreys. I also find an Andrew J Umphreys in the 1860 census (age 7) and a John Umphreys (age 11) living with Henry Snider and his wife, Elizabeth, in Moultrie Co. Illinois. I believe this boy to be the same Andrew Jackson.
Later, I find he and Hannah Jane in Texas and the last name is spelled Humphreys. During his childrens' lifetime, the last name is spelled Humphrey. I have enormous amounts of information on Andrew Jackson and Hannah Jane and their descendents from the time they settled in Texas and later in Arizona. Desperately need help finding his earlier lineage.
