Notes

There must be an error here with regard to the children. In the 1910 census and in Mathew's obituary, it is indicated that Mathew and Annabell had given birth to 12 children with 9 still living. But in the list above, we show 13 children. I suspect that the error may be in regards to children 11 and 13. The only information I have found for number 11 is a FindAGrave.com listing. If that listing is in error as to the year of death, it is possible that number 11 and number 13 are the same person. If that is not the issue, I am not sure why I have too many children.
