It appears that in 1900 Daisy Emaline Snow, at 17, was a servant in the Cockerham residence in Wilkes County, NC. Her parents had died in 1890 & 1891. This could be the wrong person, but what are the odds of there being two Daisy E. Snows born in the same month in the same county? Five years later she married Frank Rash.
