NOTES: 1900 OR CENSUS - Rabeca? A. Wood (2y, b Nov 1898, OR) enumerated with parents Willam (52y, b Jan 1848, AR, married 6 years) and Alice M. (23y, b Jan 1877, IA, mother of 4 children, all living) and 3 siblings, Lester W. (4y, b Aug 1896, WA), Edmon A. (3y, b Aug 1897, OR) and Abraham (1y, b Feb 1899, OR); also in family was William's mother Malana Vanderpool (79y, b Apr 1821, AR, widowed, mother of 10 children, 7 living at time of census)
DISCREPENCY - The birth years of the 3 oldest children in the 1900 census seem to be a year too late.
1910 OR CENSUS - Rebecca G. Wood (12y, b OR) enumerated with parents William N. (62y, b AR, second marriage, married 15y) and Alice M. (32y, b IA, married 15y, mother of 4 children, all living) and 3 siblings, William L. (14y, b WA), Edwin E. (13y, b OR) and Carl A. (11y, b OR)
1930 OR CENSUS - Gertrude R. Weaver (31y, b OR, married at age 16y) enumerated with husband Earl W. (37y, b KS, married at age 22y) and 5 children, Austin N. (16y, b OR), Norman E. (13y, b OR), Juanita R. (12y, b OR), Lester D. (8y, b OR) and Elbert C. (6y, b OR)
1940 OR CENSUS - Gertrude R. Weaver (42y, b OR, divorced) enumerated as housekeeper in home of Thomas Leatherwood; with her was son Albert (16y, b OR); they lived in rural Douglas County in 1935
DISCREPENCY - Death certificate gives birth date as 3 Nov 1896 which cannot be correct as her brother Edmund was born 14 Aug 1896; tombstone and 1900 and other census suggest 1897 is the correct date.
