Several genealogies seem to be representing family information when they report her middle name as Maldona. But the Quaid genealogy has her middle name as Winnie, like here daughter. I have found no documentation for a middle name, and none is provided in any of the genealogies. Virgie was a nickname for Virginia. Her Social Security records have a middle initial of M. In the 1920 census, when she was 10 years old, she was reported under her full name of Virginia. The 1910 census for her family reports her as 1 year old, but at that time they were living in Brady, Garvin County, Oklahoma. 1910 Federal Census, Garvin County, Oklahoma, 6 May, Brady Township, District 70, Page 9A, Hse/Fam #145 McNabb, Edward Head M W 38 Married 13 years MS US US Farmer Rents [b abt 1872] McNabb, Addie Wife F W 32 Married 13 years [mar abt 1897] 7 children/7 living b TX US US [b abt 1878] McNabb, Effie Dau F W 11 Single OK MS TX [b abt 1899] McNabb, Birtha Dau F W 9 Single OK MS TX [b abt 1901] McNabb, Audra Dau F W 6 Single OK MS TX [b abt 1904] McNabb, Virgie Dau F W 1 Single OK MS TX [b abt 1909] 1920 Federal Census, Stephens County, Oklahoma, 15 March, Parks Township, District 260, page 11A, Hse #205, Fam #212 McNabb, Edware L Head Rents M W 49 Widower TX TX TX Farmer McNabb, Effie M Wife F W 21 OK TX TX No Occup McNabb, Audra P Dau F W 16 OK TX TX Farm Laborer McNabb, Virgie M Dau F W 11 OK TX TX No Occup Census records are all in Oklahoma, reporting birth in Oklahoma, as her death certificate does.

We first find a Joseph F McPherson in the 1870 census in Pulaski County, Arkansas, at age 4. He and his brother Frank, age 1, live with their parents A and Margrete in Bayou Meto. Facts are very close to those of our Joseph F McPherson. 1870 Federal Census, Pulaski County, Arkansas, 4 August, Bayou Meto, Pulaski, Arkansas, PO Little Rock, p 7A, Hse #46, Fam #47, Parents A (24 born Ark) and Margrete (23 Born Indiana) McPherson; Joseph 4 M W Indiana Frank 1 M W Indiana The above, however, may be a different family, as the names of his parents, received later from family members, differ from those in the 1870 Pulaski County census. This is very interesting, as all other details match, including the area of Arkansas. This is just a few miles from other locations documented as residences for this family. The names in censuses of this era are known to be full of errors. In 1880 I have found Joseph's family in Kaufman County, Texas. I have not yet found his parents or him in 1900. Family members have provided information on his parents and siblings (Ref Family info from Jessie Marie McPherson Jenkins and Aretha Tucker McPherson, May 2007 email) that correlates with this 1880 entry from Texas. 1880 Federal Census, Kaufman County, Texas, 15 June, District 40, page 25A, Hse/Fam #160 Jos.

Information reported by the family gives the birth year of William Lewis (whom the family reports as Lewis William) as 1878. But if he was reported as 3 in the census, it would seem this would indicate he was born in 1877. This census was June 1880. The family could have reported the age wrongly to the enumerator. The family reports another child of William Henry and Julia, which does not show up in the censuses or genealogies I have found. This is Oscar Henry, born in Arkansas in 1883. This would mean the family had moved back to Arkansas by sometime in 1883. The family also reports that the family were back in Texas in 1897, but back in Arkansas for the 1900 census. These family sources tell us that William Henry die before the 1900 census, and that Julia is living with her son Joseph Floyd in 1900. (Information from Aretha Tucker McPherson Jenkins and Jessie McPherson Jenkins, May 2007.) I have not been able to find any of this family in the 1900 census in any state. 1910 Federal Census, Faulkner County, Arkansas, 16-18 April, Wilson Township, District 35, Page 2B, Mayflower and Cato Rd, Hse/Fam #34 McPherson, Joseph F Head M W 45 2nd Marriage Married 8 years IN AR IN Farmer McPherson, Malissie Wife F W 34 2nd Marriage Married 8 years6 children/6 living AL MS AL McPherson, Archie L Son M W 8 AR IN AL McPherson, Clemie Son M W 5 AR IN AL McPherson, Carl Son M W 3 AR IN AL McPherson, Other (Othar?)

A 5th child is reported in the 1910 census that we do not see in the 1920 census, reported in 1910 as only Other, a son, aged 1 year 3 months. That would make the birth year 1909 (census date was 15 April). It appears this is a child who died between the censuses. We cannot confirm this from the 1920 census, because, unlike the 1910 census, it does not report how many children and how many of them are still living. Perhaps this name is meant to be a spelling of Othar? 1920 Federal Census, Faulkner County, Arkansas, 9 January, Wilson Township, District 39, page 3A, Hse #39, Family #41 McPhearson, J F Head M W 54 IN AR IN (b abt 1865) McPhearson, Mallisa Wife M W 45 AL MS AL (b abt 1874) McPhearson, Clemmie Son M W 15 AR IN MS (b abt 1904) McPhearson, Eunice Dau F W 6 AR IN MS (b abt 1915)
