- !SOURCE: Email from Don (email hidden) to Weldon Whipple, 23 Jul 2005. Don notes the following:
In the 1900 MI Huron, Grant Twp census there is a James W Brackenbury, 41, with a new wife, Margaret, 35, who have been married for only 1 year. James marriage is 20 which was lined through and 1 substituted. The children Claudie 18 S; Lillie M 11 S; Vera D 9; & Hazel L 5. If this is the right James W Brackenbury, then the children would have been Cora May Myers'. In 1910 James W & Margaret had Hazel L, 15 & 4 more J Aldelius (son) 8; Eva M 6; Eda B 3 & John 1. In the 1910 MI census Margaret is listed as having 4 children with 4 living so all those older Brackenbury children would have been by the 1st wife aka Cora May ( A Maxwell conclusion) In the One World Tree are Eva Margaret, b Sep 1865, wife of James Brackenbury 16 Jul 1858-6 May 1935, with Claudie Mar 1881; Hattie 19 Jan 1883; Clarence S 6 Mar 1885; Cora E 26 Feb 1886; Lillie May 1888; Vera Apr 1890 & Hazel Dec 1894. That makes 7 children for Cora May, doesn't it?.
!SOURCE: Email from Don (email hidden) to Weldon Whipple, 25 Jul 2005. Revised information of two days earlier:Actually, Cora May only had Luzella, Vera, and Hazel. I suppose she could have had another child who died, but I haven't found that. James Brackenbury married three times, so his subsequent wives would have been shown with his earlier children. His first wife, Eva Lyon, had Claudia, Hattie, Clarence and Cora. Claudia was the only one who lived from that marriage. Then, James married Cora May. After she died, he married Margaret. He and Margaret had 4 children together - Eva, Beryl, John, and James. It looks like you found the 4 of them - Eda B. must be Beryl and J Adelphius was James, whom everyone called Del for short.
