    Notes 
    • Hobert Golden Squires was a resident of Industrial, Salem, WV. Although many records and other source materials give his name as "Hobart," his birth record, his obituary, and his wife's obituary all report his and his son's names as "Hobert," and his SSDI entry also has it spelled "Hobert."

      "History of Doddridge County," p. 249, gives Nettie Pearl Pierce's name as "Nellie," an apparent error.
