      Note there is some uncertainty with respect to her correct name. Her death certificate shows Bessie Beatty Frederick, with her father named George James. The death certificate of her son Clyde Donald Frederick identifies her maiden name as Bessie James. Census records show her as Bessie B. Frederick. Thus, until more is known she will be shown as Bessie Beatty James. Note the death date discrepancy on the death certificate and gravestone.
