In the 1900 census Henry's birth date is reported as September 1892. In his WWI Registration is 7 September 1893. In the following record, Henry is reported in the household of his maternal grandparents, in Parker County, Texas. 1900 Federal Census, Parker County, Texas, 5 June, Precinct 3, District 64, page 2B, Hse/Fam #38 Henry Tate 50 W M May 1826 74 Married 9 yrs GA GA SC Farmer Martha L Tate Wife W M [sic, should be F] Sept 1840 50 Married 9 yrs 0 children AL VA NC Bullard, Henry grandson W M Sept 1892 7 TX TX TX Henry is reported again a few days later in his own parents' household, with similar vital statistics.

His death certificate reports he is the son of Bud Bullard, which genealogies reported as a nickname for Nathan Bullard, first husband of Martha Ann Tate. The date of death on Nathan "Bud" Bullard's gravestone is 31 July 1890. There is an error somewhere in family records. Another anomaly is that his WWI Registration states that he was born in Stephenville, Erath County, Texas, while his death certificate says he was born in Parker County, with no city mentioned. The informant for the information on his death certificate is Mitch Bullard, Henry's son. I assume Henry himself provided the information on his WWI registration card. Thus I am following Henry's report of birth in Stephenville, Texas.

Henry is reported as the Grandson of J H, age 7, and the birth date is Sept 1892. This seems to be a child of Nathan Bullard and Martha Ann Tate, but the age and reported birth date place his birth about 2 years after the date of death on Nathan's gravestone. Nathan's age reported in the censuses above puts his birth earlier than the date given by the genealogy, by at least one year. His parents may have rounded up to that year's birthday, but that would still have been a year short. The date in the genealogy, however, is the date on Nathan's gravestone. The date of death on the gravestone is a conflict with the date of birth for his son Henry, who is reported born in 1892. Texas Marriages, 1851-1900 Nathan Bullard Gender: Male Spouse M. A.

Victoria's family name is spelled Burchfiel. One genealogy spells the name Burchfield, but on all the censuses, the name is consistently spelled without the D. The spelling Burchfiel is also found on several other genealogies. Some genealogies indicate that Victoria went by Vickie.

Maggie Burton Birth 1848 in North Carolina Death Abt 1877 in Newbern, Dyer, Tennessee Marriage 23 Sep 1866 Newbern, Dyer, Tennessee, to James Anderson Brinkley -- Williams/Brinkley/Mason/Vaughn, http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/49994/person/-2062686592?ftm=1 Here we see that family sources report the death of Maggie occurred in Newbern, Tennessee, in about 1877. Yet family sources also report that two of her children were born in Arkansas, in 1872 and 1876. The 1870 Dyer County, Tennessee, census reports James M born in Tennessee, which makes sense, since they are still in the county where they married and are still living. Yet later censuses report both him and later brother Robert C (born 1876) as born in Arkansas. This period of the family's life is confusing and family members are searching for corroborating evidence to clarify and fill in the gaps. Perhaps Maggie actually died in Arkansas, and was taken home for burial? Robert C Brinkley appears to be a child of the same James and Maggie Brinkley who earlier had a son named Robert, who must have died after the 1870 census in Dyer County, Tennessee. It has been proposed that they named the later Robert C after the lost child. We find Robert C in later censuses, married to Beulah, living in Johnson County, Texas, where the family finally settled.
