Event Notes Note (1) Age 24y 10m 8d in death record calculates to a birth date of Apr 27 1837. But age in marriage and census records puts it in about 1832. Note (2) Identified as mother-in-law Mahalia Kinney, 71, divorced, in household of former son-in-law Samuel Halman and his second wife, Atha. Note (3) Obituary states birth date as Jun 22 1856, an apparent error. Age 22 at time of Oct 1881 marriage would put birth in about 1859, and the 1900 Census shows his birth date as Jun 1859. He is identified in the 1860 Census of Tyler County as Martha, a one-year-old daughter. Note (4) In 1880, incorrectly listed as son Martin Kinney, rather than stepson Martin Underwood.Name Index
