The sources below are cited inline throughout; the list is the count, and no total is printed here because a hand-written one drifted twice. Raw retrieved pages and record images are held in the private research directory, not on this site. Not every entry is a document, and each one that is not is labelled so that no reader mistakes it for one: S24 is what the family said, S46 is a DNA result, S57 is a relative's Ancestry tree, S58 is a published family genealogy quoting a will nobody here has read, S59 is an 1878 subscription biographical directory, and S66 is a published family genealogy whose Page County search found nothing and whose second search, on new names, found two generations at Probable. Those carry most of the depth below the second-great-grandparents, which is exactly why the tags matter. S25–S35 were added on 13 September 2026 with the Timberman and Caffey findings, S36–S45 later the same day with the Walker, Peters and Selland findings and the two paternal upgrades, S46 that night with the DNA, S47–S56 on 14 September with the Silva and Rose findings, S57–S63 the same day with the full-depth pedigree and the two portraits, S64–S66 on 15 September with the Azores lodge registers and the Kauffman-Coffman book, and S67 the same evening with Frank Silva Sr's 1946 obituary, the notice that confirmed Faial. S68–S73 followed on 16 September — Julius Proeger's Pennsylvania death certificate and his Kirchberg baptism, Medie Owens's Texas death certificate, the Peters–Selland marriage record, the Coffman family typescript and the memorial livestream — with S74–S77 the four Røldal parish entries and S78 the Pasadena press on Robert W. Coffman's career. S79–S88 were added on 17 September 2026: they are documents that were already published in the Documents section and were being cited on the cards above as though they were tree entries — the 1919 Ohio death certificate and the 1917 draft card, Mary Jane Wright's 1934 Texas certificate, the Page County birth register, the two Coffman gravestones, Dr. Wright's 1878 will and his printed county-history biography, the Martin headstone, the 1930 Jackson County census and the 1946 Roberts marriage record. S89 followed the same day — the 1962 Abilene Reporter-News interview in which James Burton Coffman names his niece at Abilene Christian, the only non-family source on this page for two facts that had been resting on the family obituary alone. S90–S102 were added on 17 September 2026 in the reconciliation pass: the Ohio birth index and CA Death Index that identified Anna Blanche Roberts's parents (S90–S91), the 1900 census of the Henry Roberts household in Wheeling, WV (S92), the PA death certificate and 1860 census that confirmed the Timberman grandparents (S93–S94), the TN marriage record and 1850 censuses that confirmed the Martin/Chenault line (S95–S98), the NJ Birth Index for Louise Timberman (S99), and the three DNA results — 23andMe paternal and maternal haplogroups and the GEDmatch "Are Your Parents Related?" test (S100–S102). The existing numbering has never been disturbed, so every citation printed above still points where it always did.

Neighbours on the same sheet include Amy Brock, Jesse Brock Jr., and the Howard households of James, William Jr., William J., Benjamin and Phillip Howard. The 1840 census names heads only. The identification rests on the age brackets (a man and a woman 30–40, two boys under five) and the county, which is the county of the 1850 household (S169).Cited on James Brock · Timeline.

Her given name is partly illegible (indexed Martha); only ‘Ma’ is certain. The identification rests on the July birth month, the widowed Barry farm in the same district, the Kentucky-born parents and Jessie May, who is with her again in 1910 (S586). The younger daughter’s name could also be read Wallie or Nannie.Cited on Maria Louise Chenault · Timeline.

Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 25 September 2026. Confirmed James Harris, 53, male, labourer, born New Jersey; Rachel Harris, 39, born New Jersey; Charlotte E. Harris, 10, at school; Benjamin Harris, 16; all born New Jersey. No real estate entered. The 1850 census states no relationships. The first digit of James’s age is overwritten; 53 is the likeliest reading and fits his 63 in 1860 (S653) and 73 in 1870 (S622). Rachel’s 39 puts her birth about 1811. Rebecca Anna’s birth year is not settled (about 1829 by her age at death, about 1839 by her age at marriage; the 1860 census figure is written over), and this record does not settle it: she is not in the household.Cited on James Harris · Rachel Harris · Timeline.
  8. S1168New Jersey wills, Salem County will book (Vol. C–D), p. 275: will of Benjamin Burroughs of Pilesgrove Township, dated 6 January 1826. Ancestry record 209307.

His son Cornelius Burroughs is sole executor. Signed with his seal; witnesses William Mayhew[?], Garret Dubois and Solomon Dubois. The proof is on the next page, not read; the index’s “probate 6 Jan 1826” is the date the will was signed. Mary (Timberman) is not named, and no wife is mentioned. The identification rests on Salem County and the generation: Upper Pittsgrove, where Mary was born in 1788, was split from Pilesgrove.Cited on Benjamin Burroughs · Timeline.

M. Callahan. The index reads the wife as “Jennie”; the card says Jimmie, as the 1940 and 1950 censuses do. The card names no parent: the link to Solomon Alfred Brock rests on the name, the birth month (December 1874, as in 1900, S138) and the Opelousas ministry already on his card.Cited on John B.

Wright, residence Dallas County, precinct 1; time of residence in the state 19 years, in the county 19 years, in the precinct 19 years. A common name; the identification rests on the nineteen years, which date his arrival to 1850, as the 1892 county history says (S85) and as the 1850 Davidson County census allows.

The census states no relationships. The pairing (Moses born Tennessee about 1800 with Nancy) matches 1850 in Owsley County (S173), from which Jackson County was partly formed in 1858; Nancy’s age has moved eight years, not ten.

Anna's father; place (caminho do Sallão) and wife match her 1867 baptism [S1233]. Age 44 → b. c.1838. ‘Filho natural’ = born outside marriage — conflicts with the 1858 marriage entry's ‘filho legitimo’ [S1235]; both are recorded, neither is chosen, and no marriage is entered for the elder couple.Cited on Silva line · Thomás Pereira d'Escobar · Thomás Pereira d'Escobar (the elder) · Theresa Ignacia · Timeline.

Settles Anna Luiza's birthplace as Capelo (agreeing with her daughter's 1886 marriage); names her parents a second time — José Duarte Pereira × Anna Luiza — CONFIRMED. Names Thomás's parents a third time — Thomás Pereira de Escobar × Thereza Ignacia — but here he is filho legitimo, conflicting with the 1882 burial's ‘filho natural’ [S1234]. A marriage entry (groom present, baptism checked) outweighs a burial; no marriage is entered for the elder couple until found.Cited on Overview · Silva line · Anna "Annie" L.

Banns from the 8th Sunday after Trinity 1634; married on the Sunday after the Circumcision, about January 1635, at Lendsiedel. Nothing on the page ties this couple to the Seibotenberg baptisms of 1641 onward; “Lenckerstetten” is an uncertain reading; the year rests on the 1634 banns. PROBABLE.

Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 4 October 2026. Probable Sumner Co., District 12 (post office Gallatin), dwelling 40: Jacob Tyree, 45, with Fanny, 28, Sally, 10, and Mattie, 8. The index reads “Tamy”; the image reads Fanny. No maiden name or kin is stated; the tie rests on her age and the same Tyree household in 1880 and on her 1919 death certificate (S1240). Sally, 10, and Mattie, 8, were born after the marriage bond of 24 February 1859 (S1251); the 1870 census states no relationships. In 1880 Mattie is entered as daughter of the head of the household (S1242). Sally is not in that household, and no record read here states whose child she was.Cited on Frances Chenault.

Probable Sumner Co.: Fanny Tyree, 38, born Tennessee, both parents born Kentucky, wife of J. A. Tyree, with Mattie, 18, and Julia, 7, each entered as “Daughter”. Dwelling 121, family 129, lines 7 to 10, read again from the image on 13 October 2026. No maiden name on the page; the tie rests on her age, her parents’ Kentucky birthplaces and the 10th Civil District named on her death certificate (S1240). The relationship column is to the head of the family, so the page says Mattie and Julia were daughters of J. A. Tyree; it does not name their mother. Both were born after the marriage bond of 24 February 1859 (S1251), and no earlier wife of his is on record here, so they are probably Fanny’s children too.Cited on Frances Chenault.

The head is “Andw” here but “Chas” in 1870, so either one man under two names or Ella remarried; no record yet ties this Ida to the 1889 bride beyond name, age and ward (the 32nd Ward is where Julius lived).

It does not name Lutie’s parents. PROBABLE.Cited on Lucy Chenault.

Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 4 October 2026. Probable Lee Cheatham Harsh “married Fanny Barry, daughter of David F. Barry (born Jan. 1845) and Lutie Chenault Barry born 1846, married November 4, 1869. Mr. Barry had a farm near Gallatin … also connected with a bank in Gallatin. Both the Barry and Chenault families were among the very early settlers of Tennessee, coming from North Carolina.” A compiled family book. Its “from North Carolina” is a generality; the 1910 census gives Lutie’s parents as born in Kentucky. It does not name Lutie’s parents. PROBABLE.Cited on Lucy Chenault.

The 1870 census states no relationships. The tie to James Thomas rests on name, age and the David and Catharine (Kate) of the 1880 Sumner County household (S1271). Catharine, 18, is too young to be Anna L.’s mother, so James probably had an earlier wife. PROBABLE.Cited on James Thomas Chenault.

The widow’s own statement; the service is not yet checked against his service record.

The 1850 census states no relationships. Elizabeth, 60, would have been about 44 at the girl’s birth, so Robert T., 35, could instead be her father; the fit rests on Ryegate, her age and her 1880 parents’ birthplaces, Vermont and Scotland (S833).

Probable Ljone school district, Røldal parish, Suldal, 31 December 1865, farm no. 96: Lars Nilsen, head, farmer and owner, married, 51, born Suldal; Kristi Østensdatter, his wife, 60, born Suldal; Østen Larsen, their son, 26, unmarried, working on the farm, born Suldal. The census does not name Siri, and Lars Nilsen is a common name; the tie rests on Siri’s 1857 marriage to Ole Nilsen of Lone, the same farm. PROBABLE.Cited on Lars Nilsen.

Probable 3 July 1839: widower Lars Nilsen, Underbakke, 23, father Nils; Kirsti Østensdatter, Sørrestad, 33, father Østen; sponsors Knud Tjøstem and Bjarne Sørrestad. The remarks note that the groom was married before and that the probate (skifte) after his first wife was held. Siri is not named and the first wife is not named. The ages (23 and 33) agree with the 1865 census (S1283), so this is very probably the same couple, but the tie to Siri’s father rests on the name and the farms.

All born in Røldal. Ole’s marital mark is faint (perhaps “e”, widower) and no wife is listed; that is not settled.

Ancestry, “1801 Norway Census”, record 490693. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 5 October 2026. Confirmed Suldal, Præstegaarden, one family: Ole Ormsen, head, 39, married once, farmer; Siri Osmundsdatter, his wife, 40; their sons Anfin 10, Osmund 7, Orm 3 and Lars 2; Ole Ormsen, 22, and Ingebor Ormsdatter, 16, “husbondens sødskende” (the head’s brother and sister), unmarried; Orm Olsen, 69, and Guri Anfinsdatter, 62, “husbondens forældre” (the head’s parents), both married once, living retired on the farm. The relationship words are the census’s own; in full the bracket over Ole, 22, and Ingebor reads “Huusbondens Sødskende og Tienere” (the head’s brother and sister, and servants). The same page was read again on 11 October 2026 from the Riksarkivet scan (Digitalarkivet image ft20090806680257, left-hand page) and agrees name for name and age for age. The census is filed under Suldal parish, and the running heading across that opening reads “Røldahls Anex”, so this Præstegaarden is the Røldal farm of the later burials. The census index has a second Ingebor Ormsdatter in Røldal, 25, at Horra (index only, that page not read); the age of 77 at the burial of 1861 fits the girl of 16 here, not her. Guri was about 46 when Ingebor was born, so a half-sister through an earlier wife of Orm is not ruled out.Cited on Ingebjørg Ormsdatter · Orm Olsen · Guri (Guro) Anfinsdatter · Documents · Timeline.

The parents’ names are on the back of the card, which has not been seen; the tie to Orange G. Morrison rests on her name, her age (Maggie J., 14, in 1880) and Groton, where she kept house for her parents in 1910.

Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 24 September 2026. Confirmed McConnell Arthur H (Martha M), superintendent, IUCo, residence S716 Lincoln Place, Spokane. A directory states no relationships, and “IUCo” is not spelled out on the page.

Confirmed Estes Ada (wid Jack), residence 605 S. Beacon, Dallas. “Wid” is how directories often styled a separated or divorced wife; it is not evidence that her husband had died, and he was alive and divorced in the 1920 census (S1309). The entry fits her 1920 Dallas census household (S524).Cited on Ada May Brock Estes.

Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 26 September 2026. Probable Estes Jackson M (Ethel R), physician and surgeon, 306–9 Alexander Building, residence 2040 Hickory. A separate household at 1526 N. 6th: Estes Ada M Mrs, householder; Fay, Miss; Jack M., repairman, West Texas Utilities Co.; and Robt. A directory states no relationships. The tree calls Ada’s husband James M. Estes; every record read so far calls the physician Jack or Jackson M. The 1526 N. 6th household is taken to be Ada and her children because the names match her 1910 and 1920 census households (S523, S524). PROBABLE.Cited on Ada May Brock Estes.

Estes, lodger, 45, divorced, born Texas, father born Alabama, mother born North Carolina, physician; Robert, lodger, 16, born Texas; and Ethel Ragan, 23, a trained nurse. The census states no relationships. That this is Ada’s husband rests on the name, his age, his trade and Abilene; that Robert, 16, is their son Robert (S523) is inference. PROBABLE.Cited on Ada May Brock Estes.

Probable Dwelling 92, family 95: Phillip Harsh, 73, retired merchant, born Germany, real estate $16,000; Magdaline, 65, born Pennsylvania; William, 45; Lydia A. Rutherford, 35, born Pennsylvania, father foreign-born; Phillip H., 12, born Tennessee, at school; and James G., 11, born Tennessee. The 1870 census states no relationships. Phillip H. Rutherford is taken to be Mary Jane Martin’s husband by name and age (born c.1858), and Lydia as his mother; that she was a Harsh rests on her living in Phillip Harsh’s house and on her son’s middle name. PROBABLE.Cited on Mary Jane Martin.

Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 26 September 2026. Probable Line 73, farm 17: Warner, Cliff, head, owns his farm free, 67, divorced, born Illinois, father born Pennsylvania, mother born New York, stock farmer, living alone. The census names no relatives. That this is Clifford rests on his age and on the same Illinois birth with a Pennsylvania father and New York mother as the 1900 Cliff Warner (S1062). It does not agree with his wife Ella calling herself a widow in 1910 (S978): either he was alive and divorced, or this is another man. PROBABLE.Cited on Clifford Warner.

No Proeger is on the page; May married Luis about 1916. That May S. is May Shepherd Stark rests on her age (b. February 1883 makes her 27), her Ohio birth, Pittsburgh, and her daughter’s Social Security record, which names the mother May S. Stark. PROBABLE.Cited on Luis Walter (Lewis) Proeger.

  15. S1315Family statement — a niece (family statement, 2026), to Earl Proeger, 5 October 2026. Oral history from a niece of Mary Bradley. Probable J. D. Walker and his first wife Nettie Cleveland (Melvin's mother) both remarried to a couple they knew: J. D. married Ida, and Nettie married that couple's husband, who died soon after; Nettie then married Guy Walker. Also: J. D.'s daughter “Aunt Mary” married at least four times, her 2nd and 4th husbands both named Bradley. Family testimony, not a documentary record. Weak points: no divorce or marriage record yet found for the remarriages, and Nettie's middle husband (the couple's husband who died soon after) is unnamed. Consistent with the site's independent “Jerkins swap” research lead (Ida Sophie Hillmer Jerkins Walker, J. D.'s second wife; Nettie married as “Mrs. Nettie E. Jerkins” at Denton, 14 Mar 1940, before marrying Eddie Guy Walker) — see her card.Cited on Overview · Daniel Jonah Walker & Nettie Ellen "Annie" Cleveland · Nettie Ellen Cleveland · Catherine Mary Walker Bradley.

A compiled genealogy printed in 1899, not an original record. Number 5238 ties this entry to the p. 1438 entry already cited (S822), whose “aged 39” in October 1845 agrees with September 1806.

Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 29 September 2026. Probable John Parton, white, widowed, stone mason, of Bell Plain Street, Brownwood, 34 years in the town; born 28 January 1850, Kentucky; died 24 January 1924 of pneumonia; father Andrew Jackson Parton, born Kentucky; mother’s maiden name “not known”; informant Dan Parton, Brownwood; buried Brownwood. The father’s name was given by an informant, Dan Parton, probably a son, decades after the event.

No man is in the household. The 1870 census states no relationships, and the father is absent (the index’s “Henry” is not on the page). That this Ella is Clifford Warner’s wife rests on the surname, her age, an Illinois birth and a Pennsylvania-born mother, which fit her 1880 and 1920 entries.

T., born 1878, Mississippi, mother of 2 children, both living; Jewel, daughter, born September 1898, Texas; and a son, “Baby”, born 1900. Jewel’s month and year and her father’s name fit her 1974 death certificate (S658), which names W. D. Ross. The mother’s given name on this page is hard to read and does not look like the certificate’s Lula Greenway; that was given by an informant two generations on. PROBABLE.Cited on Solomon Alfred Bowles.

The stone names no relatives; that it is Kristin’s Clifford rests on the Illinois birth, the April birth month matching the 1900 census (S1062), and Tripp County matching the 1920 census (S1312). The censuses of 1880, 1900 and 1920 imply 1852, not 1851; the stone’s death day (13th) and the memorial’s (21st) differ. PROBABLE.Cited on Overview · Clifford Warner · Timeline.

A kit labelled “Hawksbill Martin Coffman d1809” (a descendant in the male line of Martin Coffman of the Hawksbill), tested Y-37, haplogroup R-M269 (predicted). The project places it in its Group 02a, headed “R1b … L188 > FGC41021: 1726 immigrant Michael, previously KFM”. Compared marker by marker, with DYS389ii counted the FTDNA way (389ii minus 389i): genetic distance 1 of 37 from the group’s Big Y-700 kit (R-FGC41021), differing only at DYS389i, and 3 of 37 from another of its kits (R-L188); the Hawksbill kit equals the group’s modal values exactly. Two kits in this group still carry the testers’ older label “Michael Kauffman d. 1717”; the project’s own group heading has replaced it with the 1726 immigrant. Not close to the project’s Swiss Steffisburg/Bern group (Group 08a, R-BY32296), which also carries a “Michael Kauffman (1675–1718)” kit. FTDNA Discover, viewed the same day, dates R-FGC41021 to about 1738 and puts its parent R-L188 among testers who mostly report Germany.

Where we looked and found nothing

Records were reached through the family’s own Ancestry, FamilySearch and Archion subscriptions and through public archives; no paywall or CAPTCHA was bypassed. One false lead is worth remembering: the apparent “Proeger” in the 1950 Texas census is a Kroeger, an unrelated family with no nine-year-old boy in it. What is still being looked for is on the front page under What is still unknown.

Compiled for the Proeger family

Living adults appear by name and relationship, with the year only: no full date of birth and no home town on any page that search engines index, and a living person’s own page is kept out of search engines. Minors appear by name only — no date of birth, no birth year, no age, no school, no place, no address, no other identifying detail. A minor may be named and may appear in a family photograph; nothing further about them is published. Where it is not established whether someone is an adult or a minor, the minor rule applies.
