(36) Obituary, The obituary of Mary L. Maulsby Johnston contains numerous factual errors, including repeatedly spelling her surname Johnson rather than Johnston, stating her birthplace as Harrisville rather than Harrison County, and identifying her father as Lawrence Maulsby rather than Lawson Maulsby. Also, rather than Mary, her first name is given as Aletha, which has not been found elsewhere. Doddridge County Republican, 12/6/1928. Event Notes Note (1) based on age 38 on headstone Note (2) Based on names of nearby households, location was probably in or near Clarksburg. Note (3) Death record states July 7 1889, but headstone reads July 9 1889. Age on headstone: 79y 6m 25d. Note (4) 1900 Census shows birth date as Nov 1829. But obituary states that he "was born near Maulsby Bridge, Harrison county, Va., (now West Virginia) May 29, 1828, and was therefore 71 years, 9 months and 3 days old." Note (5) Middle initial appears to be S, but father's obituary gives it as L. Note (6) With brother Thomas.
