Notes

1. His death certificate states the parents were Tilman Bain^[1] and Ellen Wafford^[1], however common knowledge shows as Stephen Bain and Dilah Crook . Work needs to be done to confirm the actual parents, there is an 1880 Census with a William Bain age 6, and suspected mother Elizabeth Bain, however again the name does not match expectations.
2. Find A Grave also conflicts on the birth, with the death showing 15 Oct 1869 showing of Jan 1876
