    Notes 
    • 1900 Census, Harrison Co, WV (Coal District), enumerated on Jun 5 1900:
      Rebecca Williams, 54, b. Jun 1845, cannot write, widowed, married 32 yrs, mother of 8 children (all still living); son Mariman, 29, b. Oct 1870, single, teamster; son Omer, 22, b. May 1878, single, coal miner; grandson Clide, 5, b. May 1895.
      NOTE: Because divorce carried with it a social stigma, it was not unusual in that era for divorced people to give their marital status as widowed. That appears to be the case with Rebecca Davis Williams, whose husband had already remarried.
