[Note: Bessie is listed as single and living with her father in TN, but in reality she is married, has 3 children and living in OH. Perhaps she was visiting her father when the census taker came. Her oldest child, Carl, gives her name as his mother in his Social Security application, so this is not another wife named Bessie in OH.]
