My Note:  This is my great-great grandmother with her second family.  Don't know which of these children were John and Sarah's.  She was married previously to my great-great grandfather, William Joe Lingle.  I'm wondering if John and James were actually not Bratchers, instead Lingles, but listed incorrectly on the census?  If so, James Bratcher listed above may be my great-grandfather.  I know from Mom that there was a brother, John, and a brother, Tom.  Maybe Tom was older and no longer lived with the family.
