Daughter of Henry Meador/Meadows 1867- 1940 and Ellen F. Knight, 1853-? Bertha Virginia Meadows was born in May of 1890 in Missouri.

note: according to the information I have on Bertha Virginia Meadows, her parents were Henry Meador and Ellen F. Knight. Her paternal grandparents are William Ira Meador and Margret E Sanders. I don't know why some of Henry Meadors' children spelled their last name as Meadows. Perhaps Bertha's mother was indeed named Ellen F. Knight and Maggie Jane Clements was her step-mother.

Her siblings included:

Elmer Meadows 1881-
Leona M Meadows 1887-
? Meadows Dec 28 1888-Dec 31 1888
Minnie Catherine Meadows Williams 1892-1982
Jesse F Meadeor/Meadows jan 2 1895-jun 12 1895

On Sept 24 1908, Bertha married John Franklin Lemons, 1875-1945. Bertha Virginia Meadows Lemon married William Ashby Capps some time after the death of his first wife, Bertha York, who had died in 1958.

Bertha Virginia Meadows father, Henry Meadows, was the younger brother of someone named Frances Lucinda Meadows who had married William Branceford York. One of Frances Lucinda Meadows York's children was Bertha York, born in 1891 a year after Bertha Virginia Meadows making them first cousins. Bertha York was the first wife of William Ashby Capps.
