Notes for ROSA BELL BRADLEY:

In 1880 Census a child Lura was listed as 3 years old.  This is supposed to be Rosa Bell.  Will check census data further to try to be sure that this is correct.  The dates of births are about 1877 and 1874 so there is a problem somewhere. I do know that Jonathan and Mary Ann are the parents of Rosa Bell. That is a proven fact.
