Note From: Marbeth Hill
Harriett Susan Ramage Prather had another child that is not listed in the Memorial... I am not sure the exact name but she was listed in the 1850 Census and not in the 1860 Census Her name would have been Frances J/ Frances T/ Franie or Franey ... I could not tell on the Census but looked more like a Franie or Franey to me... but listed as Frances...

It also shows that Frances S and Nancy T Prater (Prather) were both born in Missouri but they would have actually been born in Mississippi ... so hope to find a death cert of other info on this child that is not listed in Find a Grave Memorial...
