Russ,
Here is the 1910 for this family...
1910 Jackson Parish, LA (ED 55, pg 24b/100b, Ward 3)
Dorris, William E, 32, 1st marriage, marr 9 yrs, born in AL, father born United States, mother born US
Dorris, Mary J., wife, 34, 1st marr, marr 9y, 6 children born, 4 living, born in LA, father AL mother LA
Dorris, William G., son, 8, LA AL LA
Dorris, Bethel B., dau, 6, LA AL LA
Dorris, Maggie L., dau, 4, LA AL LA
Dorris, Thomas S., 1y 9mos, LA AL LA (census dated May 17)
I guess the informant didn't know where William's parents were born, other than they were Americans.
I checked all Dorris entries in Louisiana on 1900 and only one fit...
1900 Ouachita Parish (Ward 3, Monroe City, ED 86, pg 3a/42)
Dorris, Burrell, June 1878, age 21, marr 1 year, AL GA AL
Dorris, Mary, wife, Oct 1874, age 25, marr 1 year, 1 child born, zero living, LA LA GA
I didn't find this Burrell on the 1910 census.As your marriage record indicates 1899 as the marriage date, this may be your William.Your guess is as good as mine on that one.
Hope this helps,
Scott
