bullet  General Notes:


There is a "Mary Lightfoot" shown in the 1910 Census of Salem, Marion County, Oregon but it is NOT Mary Leon Lightfoot but rather the wife of a James Lightfoot who was born in Illinois. This James Lightfoot's family was from Kentucky and is most likely not related to my Lightfoot line. Mary Leon Lightfoot had already moved to California by 1910 along with the rest of her family.
