    Notes:

    Charles Sterling Owens shows differing parents, in error, for Louise Tyree. He instead shows her as the daughter of William R. Tyree and Rhonda Ann Henderson.

    However, according to Paul Williams, The Princeton, Gibson County, Indiana death record for Louisa Tyree Sowder (Bk H48, Pg 121) shows her father as William Tyree and her mother as Ellen Forgy. Paul Williams also supplied the following copy of Louise's obituary:
