Notes:

On the 1870 Census, Cooke County, Texas, Household #7 in Precinct #3, is headed by Rozella Willburn. She is living with her 5 children and 65 year old Anna Strong born in Pennsylvania. I presume her to be R. Strong born 1841 in Ohio. The birth year and birth location match. It appears she married a Mr. Willburn prior to the birth of her oldest listed child, John W., age 15. Her husband may have died sometime around or after the birth of her youngest child, Hiram age 5.
