*NOTES*
Jeanette Lee Loman Reynolds is my Grandpa Loman's sister. Her family just called her Net. I only ever her referred to as Aunt Net.

Her obit says that she was preceded in death by three brothers. I only know of her oldest brother William Arthur who had passed away in 1953.

The 1900 census indicates that her mother America B. Brown Loman had given birth to 10 children but only 8 were living.

The 1910 census indicates Bee had given birth to 8 children and 8 were living.

I know the names of the 8 that were living in the 1900 and 1910 census, but have never known that there were two sons that had been born and died between 1880 and 1900.
