AUTHOR'S [PETRACEK] NOTES:
Thomas and Harry died the same year they were born and there was another infant,
born in 1880 who died the day he was born.

William Wallace, second son of Samuel and Louisa was a great friend of Poncho Villa.
Glen Wallace, younger brother of William, a commissioned officer, fought against Poncho
Villa.

It was of special interest to this compiler to discover that Samuel Obediah Wallace had
sold a lot in the Masonic Cemetery at Lebanon, Oregon, to her great-grandfather,
George H. Liggett. The Liggetts wee not related to the Wallaces.

However, Jesse Liggett, grandson of George H. Liggett, married Pearly Lamar, the
grandaugher of Joseph Blagg Lamar and his wife, Nancy Wallace. Nancy was the
daughter of David Wallace and his wife, Elizabeth Adkins.
