Notes:

At the time of the 1900 Sabine County census, 33 year old Dolly Cordray, a widow, can be found with her three children, Cleveland age 15, Leonard age 12, and Bettie, age 11. The children were all shown as being born in Texas, as were both their parents. The 1961 Death Certificate of the eldest child, Cleveland, shows his parents as Dan Cordray and Dollie Wilson. Could this be the same Dan Cordray, born ca 1834 in Georgia, who married first Louisa Williams? She died in 1878, and her marker can be found in the Cordray Cemetery. This does not appear likely, however, as at the time of the 1880 Census, the Daniel Cordray born ca 1834 is enumerated with a wife named Martha Cordray, two years younger than him.

Dan married Dollie C. Wilson before 1884. Dollie (daughter of William Cregg Wilson and Bethie "Bettie" H. Lawhorn) was born in Apr 1867 in Texas; died on 30 Apr 1950 in Sabine County, Texas; was buried in Milam Cemetery, Milam, Sabine County, Texas. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
