Notes for Daniel M Callis
The family is listed twice in the census. The information is identical for the parents except birth year of Addie, but differs thereafter in more interesting ways. They are on adjacent pages and filled out by the same census taker. Bizarre!

Supervisor’s Distrct No. 4, Enumeration District No. 125, Sheet No. 15 (says 255 A at the top):

Putting these two together gives a basis for more than 8 children! Below is the best I can make of it

Callis, Danial M. born June 1857
-- Addie L. born Mar 1863 (assist from cemetery record)
-- Henry T. born Aug 1879
-- Dixie G. born May 1883
-- Pearl Louisa born Mar 1886
-- Melanie born May 1887
-- Nora Susan born Mar 1890 ??
-- Beatrice A. born Dec 1891-Jan 1892
-- Leeroy William born Aug 1894 (assist from cemetery record)
-- Floyd John born Jan-Feb 1897

Note that I combined Susan M and Nora S. (mixing M and N) and chose the only date that would allow for full gestation for Beatrice.
