General Notes: Wife - Bell Elizabeth ARMSTRONG
=================================================================================================
I kept Isabel and Elizabeth Bell separated for 15 years simply because I was reluctant to let
go. Isabel is on the 1900 and 1910 Federal Census records. On her death certificate, her name is
listed as Bell Elizabeth Fincher. The 1900 Census shows her birth as Nov 1896.
