Jessie's parents were James Riley "Frenchey" Priest and Jane (Samantha) Williams. The 1880 census indicates that Jessie had two brothers at that time, Charles (b 1871) and Othem (b 1878). In 1900, Jessie and Rosa had two children, Howard (b 1896) and Emery (b. 1899). They were to have two more children, Lela (b 1903) and Efford (born ?).
Jesse's actual grandfather has inconsistencies. One incorrect memorial isn't linked, but I made a new one (linked here). The 1880 census records indicate his father's (James') parents were John and Catherine, both born 1807, and not William as on James' death certificate (per 2nd wife). Elsewhere, William is assumed to be a male on some records--confusing Samantha's last name--while there is a William Priest from this time.
