      1900 Census:
      Census Place: Kanawha, Fayette, West Virginia; Roll: T623 1758; Page: 12A; Enumeration District: 14. Enumerated June 16th, 1900. Montgomery Town:
      Crocket Porter, head born Dec 1835 age 63 , number years married 32, born in Wv parents born in PA , Coal Miner
      Katherine Porter, wife born Feb 1861 [note from Donna Forney Clark: this date probably is 1851) age 50, number years married 32, children 8, 5 living. born in VA parents born in VA
      Edgar Porter son born Nov. 1874 age 25, single, born in WV, Coal Miner
      Ella Porter daughter born Jan 1979 age 21, single, born in WV, School Teacher
      Laura Porter daughter born Feb 1886, age 14, single, born in WV
      Violet Porter daughter born Aug 1895 age 4, single, born in WV
      [Sylvia's note: "in researching Crocket Porter I found in 1870 and 1880 census his wife listed as Mary. As you notice in this 1900 census it lists his wife as Katherine. Based on the information listed in this census showing both Katherine and Crocket married 32 years I would have to conclude that Katherine and Mary are both the same person. This suggests his wife's full name was possibly Mary Katherine.
      Approximate year of marriage for Crocket and Mary Katherine was abt. 1868 based on this census record.]
