NOTES:
Nell died at the age of three, I could not find her headstone, but the family reports that she and Minnie Abigail are buried in Wortham Cemetery and since records were burned in a fire, I doubt I will ever find their location in the cemetery.  Charlie was accidentally killed when a loaded supply wagon rolled over him as he tried to still the horses.
