    Notes 
    • 1880 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (West Union District), enumerated on Jun 2 1880:
      Reason Weekly, 25, laborer; wife Maggie, 24; Walter, 2; unnamed male, 2 months.
      (NOTE: Relationships of the two children are not indicated, but they are presumed to be sons. The younger son would be Charles Ray Weekley, birth date indicated here as April 1880, but whose birth date is reported in most records as Apr 18 1881. The presence of wife Maggie (Margaret A. Cupp) in this census is inconsistent with the June 1879 death date in Doddridge County death records. The handwritten alphabetized listing of deaths is apparently in error.)
