Notes

Note 1

Per Wadette Howell Matthews, Homer’s great niece:

This is the birth order of the 11 Tyler children: Homer, Arthur, Sallie, Elijah, Addie, Noah, Esther, Walter, Levi, Ira, and Virgil.

As an older man, Homer jumped off one of the two bridges in Little Rock crossing Arkansas River and died. I used to know which bridge but have forgotten name.
