Notes for Jessie Lovel Mark
Jessie was listed in the 1900 census as age 11, born Sep 1888, which may be correct, but her age in later censuses is suggestive of a birthdate in 1889 or 1890 (20 in 1910, 30 in 1920, and 39 in 1930).

The Ohio deaths database lists Jessie Jones, female, age 78, died 27 Apr 1969 at Mercy Medical Center, Springfield, Clark Co., Ohio.

Census
In 1910 they are listed in Bath Co. with Jessie’s widowed mother as Jones, Allie, son-in-law, 22, farm laborer; Jessie, daughter, 20, first marriage for both, married 0 years. Both born Ky Ky Ky.

1920 census of Henry Co., Indiana, New Castle ward 5, enumerated 15 Jan, lists on p. 19B as family #370/394, at 1325 P. Ave:

Hershell and Floyd born Indiana Ky Ky, all others Ky Ky Ky.

Boone is really Allie’s brother-in-law. Jessie Marks is the second wife of Allie’s brother Isaac, and the three Marks children are Isaac’s children from his first marriage, to Blanche Wages. I have not been able to locate Isaac in this census year; most likely he was traveling on business and not recorded anywhere.
