Notes:

From a letter written by Hazel Dawson Looper, who descends from Jane through her daughter Lavinia Campbell. Letter dated 24 July 1974, and is in the possession of Earlene Rogers: Lavinia Caroline Campbell had 11 children, including identical twins, Agnes & Ines, bn in Calera OK 1883. They remained there and were the oldest identical twins in OK in 1968. They may have been born in Grayson Co TX. Nora may be another child. Elsa Turner from Albany, TX noted this family didn't come into OK until 1886.
