Notes
a. Note:   --- "Surprise dinner on Amanda Sumner Nov. 24-86, age 48, a big time and complete surprise over one hundred eat dinner."
 ... "35th Anniversary of G. C. & A. Sumner selebrated [sic] Dec. 31, 1892. over one hundred people took dinner. recd. $50.00 worth of presents."
 ... The marriage entry in the Bible for G. C. and Amanda (Moore) Sumner shows they were married "December the 31, 1858." This contradicts the previous entry which, when calculated, shows they were married in 1857. (Source 5) JDS/MKF
 --- "There are ten great grandchildren living...Mrs. Sumner was a fine type of the pioneer mother who worked hard, raised her family, took a deep interest in her friends and made the community better for having lived in it." (Source 6)
 --- "...his [Charles'] mother...[was]...a daughter of John Moore, the well-known pioneer of this county." (Source 8) JDS/MKF
 ---" He [Charles] leaves to mourn his loss, his mother [Amanda MOORE Sumner], one sister, a wife, three sons and his four grandchildren, whom he loved so well, and a host of friends and relatives..."

 ...There is no entry in this source for a gravemarker for John Moore (wife Lavisa). Amanda Sumner is the daughter of John and Lavisa Moore. John W. Moore is incorrect and should be John W. Sumner as he is the son of G. C. [not G. G.] and Amanda (Moore) Sumner. JDS
