    Notes 
    • Updated 31 Oct 2026. Gloria's entry followed the family record as it stood in 1999, which listed a son Joseph, born 1841, as the eldest child. That 1841 Joseph goes back to an error first made in the 1970s and copied into many family trees since. Stewart Crumpler has shown that he was the same person as Josiah B. (Joseph Blackman Crumpler, born 1847), so he has been removed from this family.
