It names George Straughter as her father and her mother as Julia McMillan, but on another death certificate is list her father as Sam Straughter. I have not been able to find her husband - listed as Jonathan (John) Dearman, I just now found that on the 1910 Lauderdale Co., Miss Census that her father's birthplace was Washington, ?, and that she was a widow.
