Unnamed Baby of Countryman

The child (neither name nor gender is mentioned) who is born into the "family of country people" who are living in Jefferson and being looked after by the Red Cross and Narcissa Benbow (72).

Unnamed Country Children

The two "infant children" in the "family of country people" that moves into Jefferson during the First World War (72). Since their mother is pregnant again, "infant" presumably means something like "less than three years old."

Unnamed Countrywoman

This unnamed woman is pregnant again when she moves from the countryside into Jefferson with her husband and two children. Her baby is born after her husband had been drafted and shipped overseas, but is helped by the Red Cross and Narcissa Benbow.

Unnamed Country Man

This "young man" who moves from the country into Jefferson during World War I is identified as "steady" and "exemplary," poor but with "a desire to get on" (72). He has a wife, who is pregnant with their third child, when he is drafted and sent overseas, where he serves as "a company cook in the S.O.S." [Supply Service]. In his absence the Red Cross and Narcissa Benbow "took charge of the family."

Unnamed Negro Wagon Driver

This is the "negro in a passing wagon" who gives Young John Sartoris a lift back toward town after John crashes the hot air balloon he took up (68).
