  • Notes 
    • Josiah and Elizabeth most likely had more children. There is a ten year gap between Henry and Jesse. Most likely the children in between did not survive. It is unknown at this time weather that is the case or not but, most likely is the case. It is also unknown, if there are children in between the 2 if they died at birth, or in infancy. Sarah reported 5 children with 5 living in 1900, so it is possible that she did not have any more between Henry and Jesse. However, I have seen that the number of children listed can be listed wrong. According to the 1910 Census, Elizabeth was the mother of 14 children, with only 3 living. So one of them is wrong.
