Notes
* Susie is buried between her mother and Genoa at Methodist Cemetery. Edgar's death certificate names her Sarah but that information comes from Flora, who probably never knew her.
* Archa is listed on the 1880 census and is the only child who could have been dead when Ella was born since Nancy and Lena are both on the 1900 census.
* I couldn't find any records on Lena after 1900.
* I wasn't able to find information on any of Emmett's girls.
* William Asa's death record says he was born in Midway but he was probably born in Grimes County.
