    Notes 
    • Melba Gene McLemore had two seperate daughters, with similar names and birthdates, listed: Bertha Bates Herrington, born 29 Jan 1884 and Bertha Bea Herrington, born 27 Sept 1884. This would leave only nine months between their births.

      The 1900 Erath County has only one daughter around this age and with a similar name, "Bertie B. Herrington Dtr W F Sept 1883 16 S Tx Miss Tx." As the census further notes that Perlina was the mother of 7 total children, all still living, it appears that there was only one Bertha/Bertie B. Herrington.

      Based on the above census information, it is assumed that the September month of birth shown by Melba is more likely to be accurate than the January birth month.

      She was said to have married Robert N. GILLEY on 6 Jun 1909 in Erath County, and be the mother of Ruth GILLEY. Beth Herrington has her as the mother of eight children in total.

      Her dates of death vary as well (shown as 12 Mar 1952, 25 Sept 1957 and 27 Sept 1957). She is said to be buried in Sunger Cemetery, Denton County, Texas.
