Also shows another son, George Wilson (2nd) with no dates, he may have been one of the children who died before 1900 census. She does not list James as a child, nor does she list Ida Mae, but has Josephine "Jossie" married to Martin Parkins. Based on the 1900 and 1910 censuses, Jennie gave birth to either 9 or 10 children, and as of 1900, had 7 living. I suspect Josephine and George Wilson both died before 1900. If I add him as a child, the total would be 9, but there are errors in the article, and the child count is not the same on both censuses, so I am leaving him off since there is no other proof.
