| Note: [[:elisha_burrell_randall|Elisha Burrell M. Randall]] was incorrectly identified as "Eliza" and female rather than male. | Note 1: There is an obvious 12 year discrepancy in the age for Letty Mealer in the 1860 vs. 1870 U.S. Census. |
| | Note 2: If Sarah Mealor's age was accurately reported in the 1860 U.S. Census, she should have been 10 years old in 1870 (not 11 years old). |
| | Note 3: In the 1860 & 1880 U.S. Census, Matthew Mealor reported his birthplace as Georgia. Reporting "Tennessee" appears to be an error. |
