Research Notes
- There are three children of John Baxter Morgan show they were born in 1849 and the gravestones are not assisting with the mystery. I did my best to figure out when they were born.
- There is an name/date issue with the 1920's census report, her name should be Julia Esther and her birth year was changed from 1856 to 1844, should be about 75.
- Robbins Cemetery, Mayfield, Graves County, Kentucky, USA, (although Billion Graves shows the listing at Robbins Cemetery, the tombstone actually states Bethany Cemetery. I am not sure if that refers to his wife Mary only, posted by Donna Sokoll on findagrave)
