| 6917 | ◦Information about Nancy's family is from the family file of Betty H. Reed dated Nov 2006 and posted at Ancestry.com. Betty cites a non-published book by Mabel Harvey Thornton as the source. Daughter of Absalom Jefferson and Nancy (Dodson) Hembree and according to the source cited above was born on the trip from TN or OR. Census records give her birthplace as MO. She married 2nd to S.J. Bogart. The 1900 census of Renton, King WA lists Samuel J. and Nancy M. Bogart. Samuel age 61, born May 1839 NJ, Nancy age 58, born May 1842 OH - parents from ENG and IRL. Samuel and Nancy married for nine years, so married about 1891. If that is this Nancy the age and birthplace information about her is incorrect. However it does list her as having been the mother of ten children, only three still living in 1900 - which does appear correct. In 1910 Nancy Bogart, widow, age 73 (born abt. 1837) MO, parents from TN, is listed at Tacoma, Pierce WA. | Hembree, Nancy Matilda (I44014)
