    Notes:

    Although many census records refer to “Gertrude F Bradford,” most vital records refer to “Flora Gertrude Bradford”.

    Flora Gertrude (Bradford) Herndon probably died in Kirbeyville, but [TxDoH-1953a] only lists the county.

    A grand-daughter, Katherine Bevil (age 7) is enumerated in the household of James Augustus Herndon and Flora Gertrude (Bradford) Herndon in 1930. This individual is probably the daughter of May Christine Herndon and her, as yet, unknown spouse named “Bevil”. Further research is required.
