Shared note

In the 1870 census he is showing as two years younger than Ella, though it has been said they were twins. This could have been a transcription error? In 1880 he and Ella are both 19, which I think is correct.

Shared note

Excerpt from a letter from Lewis Bean Wallingford to his brother Thomas Ginn Wallingford, 16 April 1888:

"We have a cold wet spring farmers are behind in crops There is a good many sick and a number of deaths pneumona has biin fatal Edgar Wallingford died a few days ago with Consumption Bud. W son I think Sister Anny knew him"

In the 1880 Fleming County census the Wallingfords and the Tuckers lived only a few households away, and as Edgar was about the same age as Annie Tucker, it is likely they did know each other.
