    Notes:

    1880 Census, McDowell Co, WV, compiled by William A. Marsh, Vol 9, page 773. Big Creek District, page 015. Listed as Henry F. Dancy, age 3, in household of father, James M. Dancy.

    Greenbrier Co. WV Marriage Register, 1895, p.125, line 124. He is listed as 18 years old, born in McDowell Co. WV.

    1900 Census Nicholas Co.WV, Henry is renting a farm. He is 22 years old and has been married 4 years.

    In household 247 is his wife Alley, age 27, and his niece July Ann Coleman, age 3, and William Nelson, age 17. July (Julie) Coleman is likely the daughter of Mary Coleman, age 26, listed in the household of her parents James and Sarah Dancy in Greenbrier Co. WV 1900 census. Mary indicates she has 4 living children, but none of them are with her. William Nelson's mother was born in NC, so he could be the son of Amanda, Mary, or Margaret, Catherine or Sarah Emeline Nelson. In the 1880 Census for McDowell Co. WV, Catherine and Sarah used the surname Dancy, but this was not their real father's name. So it is possible they began to use the last name of Nelson as did their older sisters.

George and his second wife live just 2 farms down from Henry. Julia must be the daughter of Mary Coleman listed in the 1900 census with her parents James and Sarah Dancy. She has 4 living children, but they are not living with her.
