Research Notes

• Before work began on this profile (originally known as Charity Bell, now known as Charity Medaris), Samuel Bell was listed as her father; no records were found that indicated he was her father.

• Birth records state William Loving Medaris is her father. Marriage records for Charity and her mother Isabel shows William Loving Medaris as the father of Charity and the spouse of Isabel. Charity is also listed in the 1900 and 1910 Census records as Medaris. The 1900 census with Medaris as last name and census states mother and father were married 14 years.

• Charity's LNAB was changed to Medaris-167.
