Notes:
* Rachel POWELL - Headstone says Rachel D. Mills b. 11/18/1865.
* I need help on this powell/paul line. Her older children knew her name to be Rachel Paul, while younger ones knew her name to be Powell.
* Lorene MILLS - Her name is different on each census, Lurena or Lorna, but her death certificate says Lorene.
