Census
1910 census of Rowan Co., Hogtown, E.D. 156, p. 16A, records as family #266 (between George W. Fraley and Alford W. Fraley, probably brothers of Mary):
Caudill, George, 28; Mary, 28; married 3 years, no children. William C., brother-in-law, 24.
There is no surname listed for William, which would ordinarily mean that he was a Caudill, but George had no brother-in-law named William Caudill, and his own brother William was much older. So this is most likely Mary's brother, the enumerator having accidentally left off the surname Fraley.
1920 census of Rowan Co., Wagner precinct, lists on p.10 as family #90/93:
Caudill, George, 38; Mary, 38; Fraley, William, brother-in-law, 35.
