Have some questions as to whether William had two different wives. 1880 Census lists Elizabeth J. 1900 Census lists Jane. 1900 Census indicates a marriage of 17 years, but oldest daughter, Katie, is 18 years old. Age of Elizabeth and Jane match.
1880 Census listed with her husband William. She is 18 years old.
1900 Census listed with her husband, William, and children Katie, Myrtle, Rena, Minnie, and Blanche. She is 38 years old.
