      Meadows, Thomas J 69 md age 21 VA VA VA
      Sarah wife 65 md age 16 WV WV WV

      1900 shows Sarah has given birth to 8 but only 6 are living, and in 1910 it is 10 but only 6 are living. We don't know who the 8th one was in 1900, but that leaves 3 who died in the decade between 1900 & 1910. Rose is one, Oletus should be there, aged 10, so he is probably #2. Thomas, Lona, and Emma were living then, so that leaves Rebecca and Bertie.
