    Notes 
    • 1900 Census, Harrison Co, WV (Elk District), enumerated on Jun 13 1900:
      Andrew Douglas, 75, b. Jan 1825, farmer, married 52 yrs; wife Ruhama, 75, b. Dec 1824, mother of 9 children (8 still living); son Jefferson D, 39, b. Oct 1860, farm laborer, married 6 yrs; dau-in-law Anna A, 25, b. Sep 1874, married 6 yrs, no children; grandson Ralph, 5, b. Sep 1894; grandson Andrew J, 4, b. Jan 1896; grandson Lawrence, 2, b. Jul 1897; granddau Irene, 1, b. Jul 1899; son Cecil, 25, b. Aug 1874; nephew Arthur Hall, 21, b. Sep 1878; niece Marie Hall, 18, b. Apr 1882; granddau Virginia Ward, 2, b. Sep 1897.
      (Note: The entry of no children for Anna is an apparent clerical error, as the listed Douglass grandchildren are all hers. Cecil, listed as a son, is actually Andrew's grandson, a child of Edward. Virginia Ward is presumably a daughter of Mary Etta Douglass and Solomon Ward. Exact relationship with Arthur and Marie Hall is unclear.)
