Notes

• In the 1940 census, Annette is reported as 12 years old, and thus born about 1928.  However, she does not appear in the household of her parents in the 1930 census.  Also missing in Reid A Butler Jr, who was an infant.

  Annette's nephew and Butler coresearcher Reid A Butler III commented on this in our ongoing exchange of emails as we worked together on this research:
  
  "I know my grandparents married in Harrison County. TX in ____ and I know my Aunt Annette was about 17 months old when the 1930 census was taken and my Dad was about 45 days old b 14 March, 1930.  Census taken 19 April, 1930 but why the 2 of them are not listed is still a mystery to me."

  "Orville Boyd Jenkins, my dad's siblings were his older sister Annette Frank Butler Baudier, the brother just below my dad William Ross Butler, Dan Benjamin Barnard Butler, Louise Butler also known as Susie, Virginia Butler known as pumpkin, and then Marshall Archibald Butler.  Just a quick mention about my aunt Annette's middle name Frank.  It was her aunt Annie's middle name as well.  Her aunt's, my great-aunt's, name was Anna Frank Butler Scott.  She was the sister that took care of my grandfather Reid Butler Sr after his mother had passed.  I have no idea where the name Frank came from."
