Birth*	David, son of Alexander A. McKee and Sarah Jemimah Baird, was born in October 1857 in Honey Grove, Fannin Co., Texas. TXGenWeb's date is c1856. FamilySearch Trees (ID KCKZ-C78) claims his middle name was Andrew as does Find A Grave, but without headstone to corroborate. Others say Alexander.5,6,7
Baptism	David was baptized on 13 October 1858 at Bethel Presbyterian Church in Bethel, Fannin Co., Texas.8
Census1860	David appeared on the 1860 Federal Census of Honey Grove, Fannin Co., Texas in the household of his parents, Alexander A. McKee and Sarah Jemimah Baird, as 4 yo David McKee.9
Census1870	David appeared on the 1870 Federal Census of Honey Grove, Fannin Co., Texas in the household of his parents, Alexander A. McKee and Sarah Jemimah Baird, as 12 yo David McKey.10

Marriage*	He married Arabella C. "Arra" Odell from 1 February 1893 to 4 February 1893 in Fannin Co., Texas. Allen claims 04 Feb, Select says 01 Feb. Perhaps one is the license and the other the marriage.      Other issue per Allen was David Hilburn McKee but I've seen no evidence in support.      Arra apparently remarried before 1918 to Fnu Covel. She shows up with the Covel surname in several documents, e.g. son Raymond's WWI draft card. I've been unable to find Arra in ANY of the 1910-1950 censuses!.12,13,7
Census1900*	David and Arabella appeared on the 1900 Federal Census of Twp. 5, Choctaw Nation, Indian Territory, enumerated 22 June 1900, as 42 yo David A & 27 yo wife Arabella C McKee. Their children Otis Leeman and Raymond Provine were listed as living with them, as well as 29 yo boarder Floyd Johnson. This census is unreadable so I've relied on HQO's values.14
Death*	David died on 21 August 1908 in Caddo Co., Oklahoma, at age 50. His remains were brought to Texas from Caddo, Bryan Co., Oklahoma.6,15,5
Burial*	He was buried at Oakwood Cemetery in Honey Grove, Fannin Co., Texas. Find A Grave provides no headstone photo but does show an unidentified obit.5,15

Birth*	Martha, daughter of Alexander A. McKee and Sarah Jemimah Baird, was born on 21 April 1859 in Honey Grove, Fannin Co., Texas. Find A Grave's date is Jan 1861, but that doesn't jive with the 1860 census.3,4,1,5,6

In the family below, with same house number but new visitation and family numbers, we find Mattie's son Herbert and his family.      Initially I thought Mamie was d/o Mattie but additional research shows her to have been the d/o Wm Thomas Stancell & Cornelia George.14

Birth*	Lucy, daughter of Alexander A. McKee and Sarah Jemimah Baird, was born on 21 January 1862 in Honey Grove, Fannin Co., Texas. Her obit unfortunately calls her just Lucy Bell and does not name her parents.7,8,9
ResearchNote	Research Note of 19 August 2024 re Find A Grave error. Find A Grave shows Lucy B. McKee (1862-1934) as daughter of Daniel & Sarah McKee. The 1870 & 1880 censuses have her living with Alex & Sarah, specifically as a daughter in 1880. There's an outside chance she was the daughter of Dan and Sarah but was for reasons unknown living with her uncle & aunt. Her death certificate also lists her parents as Dan & Sarah. This is likely the source of Find A Grave's confusion.5,7
Census1870	Lucy appeared on the 1870 Federal Census of Honey Grove, Fannin Co., Texas in the household of her parents, Alexander A. McKee and Sarah Jemimah Baird, as 8 yo Lusey (indexed Susey) B McKey.10

Census1930	Lucy and Warren appeared on the 1930 Federal Census of Pct. 5, Fannin Co., Texas, enumerated 8 April 1930, as 74 yo Warren & 68 yo wife Lucy B Thomas.17
Death*	Lucy died on 9 July 1934 in Dallas, Dallas Co., Texas, at age 72, of angina pectoris (a heart attack). Her Find A Grave memorial says 11 July, though her headstone clearly reads 09 July. Survived by her husband and seven children according to her obit. Her son Ray claimed Lucy's parents as Dan & Sarah McKee on her death certificate.7,8,18

Birth*	Sarah, daughter of Joseph Wilson and Sarah B. Donaldson, was born on 16 March 1829 in Tennessee, aka Sarah McKee. Year only on tombstone.5,6,7,8,4

Event-Misc*	Sarah sold two slaves to Andrew D. Wilson as Sarah B. Wilson on 1 March 1845 at Lamar Co., Republic of Texas.10
ResearchNote	Research Note of 24 November 2023. See Daniel E. McKee (1825-1887).11
Census1850	Sarah appeared on the 1850 Federal Census Hunt Co., Texas in the household of her parents, Joseph Wilson and Sarah B. Donaldson, as 20 yo Sarah B Wilson.12,13
Marriage*	She married Daniel E. McKee, son of Isaac McKee and Nancy Janet "Jane" Richmond, on 8 January 1852 in Fannin Co., Texas. Research Files says "no license found but listed in register at Court House in supplemental binder. Fannin County".14,15

ResearchNote*	Research Note of 19 August 2024 re Find A Grave error. Find A Grave shows Lucy B. McKee (1862-1934) as daughter of Daniel & Sarah McKee. The 1870 & 1880 censuses have her living with Alex & Sarah, specifically as a daughter in 1880. There's an outside chance she was the daughter of Dan and Sarah but was for reasons unknown living with her uncle & aunt. Her death certificate also lists her parents as Dan & Sarah. This is likely the source of Find A Grave's confusion.17,18
