Notes

Violet: After the death of her mother, Violet's father kept his three daughters together, with the help of relatives for about six months. But when he told Minnie and James Roagers, whom he was doing landscaping for, of his trouble, they took the three girls to care for. After a few weeks, George brought his friends, the Ross's and Forbes to take Bertha to the Ross's and Stella to the Forbes to raise. The Roagers kept the baby Violet, adopting her, and changing her name to Ruth Louise.
