NOTES:
Medice was known as Meedy.
Other children were born to this marriage.  At least one daughter was born in 1880, Kaufman TX.  On the 1880 census the baby girl had not been named yet and was 6 months old.
Medice married after the untimely death of James Robinson, but she is buried beside James with the last name of ROBINSON. Both Meedy's and James' headstone had to be replaced due to the crumbling of their headstone.  Pieces of the original headstone are still laying between the two new ones.
