Notes:

According to the 1900 census, Tillie was born in 1877, not 1878. Tillith Kyre's death record states that her father was David Lewis and her mother was Margaret Edwards.

Notes:

In her father's obituary (1904), Margaret is called "Mrs. Maggie Higgins." She may be the Margaret Lewis, age 43, who was living with the Eason Lloyd family in Lick Township, Jackson County, Ohio, at the time of the 1900 census. She was listed as a servant. The 1900 marriage license of her daughter, Jennie, states that Jennie's father's name was "Boyers". This may be the Margaret Lewis who gave birth to Albert Lewis in 1886. On Albert's birth record, his father is listed as William Jones.
