Roy, Jake head W M 24 Farmer   OH OH OH
Evy          wife W  F  21              TX  TN TN  (TN is questionable)

Notes:
This could possible be a 1st wife of Jake, the name is hard to read
looks like Elvy, or Evy... This presents a problem.... The census is
taken 9 Jun 1880, there are NO children listed in this family at this
time, yet, son William H Roy is born 29 Sept 1880 ????? Either we
have the wrong W H Roy, or as time has a way, the dates are wrong,
the other issue is this lady shows her parents born in Tenn? 

Our Martha E White is not living with the Alford family in 1880,
and I an sure Jakc and Eva married, but when may be the question...

I have checked the Red Lick Cem records for a lady born 1859'ish
and cannot find one, this could just be a classic case of census taker
mistakes and memory problems...
