Documentation:
* Note--Garret and Phebe may have been twins. 1900 census records for each of them looks like birthdate is July 1836
* Melvina and Melville were possibly twins and probably born in 1847, though the 1900 census record for Melville indicates that he was born in 1845. Other records indicate a birth year of 1847.
