1910 Census
Gordo, Pickens County, AL, District 6, Sheet 98, enumeration date May 4 1910
William E. Brown, head, brick layer, with wife Zelpha and 3 children (Henry, Allen, and Belle)
Carolyn B. April 2007: Talked to Nedith B. W. and she is pretty sure that mysterious William Ethridge Brown was never divorced from Zelphia, just seperated and Zelphia re-married within 6 months of his death. He died in July of 1919 and she was re-married on the 1920 census. His death certificate says "widowed" which he wasn't unless there was a wife before Zelphia.
