Notes:
We don't know much about William Mack. The family story goes William Mack married Mary Elizabeth Nelson. Rose's older sister by 8 years. They had 6 children, 4 boys and 2 girls (one passed before the age of 1). Mary Elizabeth died 16 Feb 1925 and everyone told Mack he needed a mother for those kids. Almost 1 year later, he married Rose and they 5 children, 4 boys and 1 girl.
 
Rose Scoots told me about going to the movies every weekend with William Mack. And tht she played the banjo for the family on Sunday's. We know more about her life and the lives of the children after William Mack's death.
