1 Unidentified; probably children of the Allens and Farrises.
2 Walter Humes, son of Jose and Mary Jane Phillips, b. 28 Sept. 1870, d. 29 July 1871.
3 Perhaps Eva Caruthers, the daughter of James H. Caruthers and Ann Joplin, who was the sister of Thomas Humes's wife Lou (II.B.d).
4 Children of Jose Humes and Mary Jane Phllips: Mary Alice (1863-?) and Thomas Edwin (1865-1837).
5 Perhaps Charlotte Joplin, sister of Thomas Humes's wife Lou; she married William Silvey (II.B.d).
6 Daughter of WMW's sister Rachael and Will Forsythe; b. about 1864.
7 I haven't found any information about Thomas and Lou's "trouble".
8 Asa Webster bought the Humes brothers' mill at Gravois Mills a few years later, and operated it until it was bought up by the Bagnell Dam company in 1929 in preparation for the damming of the Osage and the creation of the Lake of the Ozarks; it was then the last grist mill operating in Morgan County. See "Historic Mills to Pass", Kansas City Star, 17 Nov. 1929, reprinted in Missouri Historical Review 25 (1930-31) 185.
9 Mildred had a couple of cousins named William Humes, grandsons of her grandfather John by his second wife (widow Purse). One was the son of Berry Humes (wife unknown); he was known as "Billy", so he is perhaps the stronger candidate (II.F.c p.6). The other was the son of John Humes and Sally Taylor, and was killed accidentally (II.B.d).
