Notes

Note

Nettie is called Lydia on the 1880 census of her grandmother Nancy Price's household, in which she was living with her mother Martha Thompson. I don't know why.

I am almost positive "Lydia" and Nettie are the same person.

Nettie was married in her aunt Harriet Ganoe's home in 1893. Martha Thompson was in that home in 1890, according to the Veterans and Widows Census.

There is a record of a Mary M Billups and a Nettie Thompson being dropped from the Methodist Church Burnham Charge at the same time. This would have been between 1886 when Martha M Thompson married Henry Billups, and 1892 when Martha died. (I lost the link to this record and couldn't find it in July 2024.)

Nettie (Thompson) Hollingworth's death certificate says she was born August 14, 1871. This would match the age of Lydia in the 1880 household. There are no other daughters named Thompson in that household.

I looked at all 118 images of the earlier book, the one with 118 images. The menu entry says United Methodist Church Burnham Charge and the book itself says 1868 to 1888
I looked at the first 18 images of the later book, the one with 170 images. The menu entry says United Methodist Church and the book itself says 1888 to 1900.
