Note (2) Age 75y 8m 14d in death record calculates to a birth date of Jun-19-1828. But age in the censuses consistently put birth in about 1830, including the 1900 Census which specifies Jun 1830. Note (3) Birth date on headstone is 1861, and her marriage record indicates a birth date of Jul 5 1861. But age in her death record calculates to a birth date of Jul 5 1860. Her age in the 1920 Census would put her birth date in about 1862, in agreement with the July 1862 birth date given in the 1900 Census.Name Index
