Event Notes Note (1) Marriage record shows birth date as May 26 1859, but death record shows it as May 6 1859. Note (2) Death record shows death date of Joseph L. Bailey as Nov 20 1941. But 1930 Census shows wife Etta Bailey as a widow at that time. Death record states burial location only as a cemetery 2-1/2 miles south of Salem. Note (3) Birth record indicates a birth date of Jan 1 1884, and the 1900 Census shows it as Jan 1885. But age 3 in 1910 Census would put it in about 1887. Note (4) A local news items in the "Doddridge County Republican" of Aug 29 1918, listing mailing addresses of local military men, contained the following entry: "Dallas B. Bailey, Co I, 67th Inft., Camp Sheridan, Montgomery, Ala., also writes for the Bugle." This was a reference to Dallas Bailey requesting that "The Bugle," an affectionate nickname for the "Doddridge County Republican," be sent to him. We have not found further indication as to where he may have been stationed during his term of enlistment.
