*Benjamin Franklin Coleman IV was the illegitimate son of Frank's oldest son Benjamin Carroll Coleman. The mother was Martha Gross whom Frank later married and he raised the boy as his own son and as a brother to Amos, Bill, Alma and Maggie even though he was actually his grandson. The boy was also called Frank and will be listed as Benjamin Franklin Coleman's son throughout the remainder of this manuscript for the sake of clarity.
