You didn't give any dates, or approximate dates, when anyone in your query was born. These look like matches. If you know year of births, it would narrow the search on the common names and you could look for some of the others.

Was Jessie/Jesse a daughter? This is a possible match, note born in Kyle. DCs are notorius for having errors, so name spellings and birth locations for parents often are off a tad.

I know the index says 1890-1976, but TX didn't begin to officially keep vital records until 1903 and some counties weren't too reliable about keeping records for some time after that. Chances get slim on finding a DC on anyone who died prior to about 1915, but always worth a try.

Happy Hunting (^_^)
