Notes for James & Nancy Jane (Family)
This is not intended to be a complete family group. I am entering them only to record the parents of their daughter Rosa, and she in turn is entered only to help document that the Rosa Daugherty who died in 1919 in Pendleton Co. is not the same person as the Rosetta (with the same years of birth - at least as recorded on their death certificates - and death) who was the wife of Alexander H. Daugherty.
