Notes and Credits:


1. Emily McFann's date of birth was taken from the 1898 Circular in her father's pension file. All other dates of birth were taken from the census records.

2. Dates of her two marriages were taken from the two marriage records cited above. I have certified transcriptions of the marriage records from the Clerk's Office; I have not seen the original records.

3. The 1910 census indicates that she had five children, so one is missing from the above list.
