    7. [S1736] Note.
      As Alice was not listed by her parents in 1880 as someone who normally resides in their household, she was probably living on her own. In the 1900 US Census, Alice's mother reports she had seven children, six of whom were still alive. All but Alice Olive are accounted for, alive and well, in 1900. No Alice Bisbee is found buried in Wattsburg Cemetery, suggesting that she may have been married before she died.
