Jacob Benton Cross age 49 was the son of Franklin W. (Frank) Cross and Virginia Florence Laymance.  As such, Jacob was the great grandson of my fourth great grandfather William Cross the Revolutionary War Drummer boy.  Jacob's line was William -> Elijah -> Franklin W. (Frank) -> Jacob.

Jacob's wife was Peony Langley age 48.

Thurley was a female daughter in the 1900 census, and a male son in the 1910 census.  He was in fact a male, Thurley Clinton Cross.

Minnie was enumerated as a stepdaughter, but she was in fact a widowed daughter who had moved back home.  Her first husband was Henry Harmon.

All the children's birth places were listed as IN IN IN, but in fact all of them should have been listed as IN TN  IN because Jacob himself was born in Tennessee.
