Event Notes
Note (1) His death record states burial location as Childers Cemetery, but there is a
joint marker for him and his wife at Archbold Cemetery.  It is unclear whether
William is actually buried at Archbold, or if  the marker is simply a memorial
to him.  Jemima's death record indicates Archbold Cemetery.
Note (2) Death record reports birth date as Jun 14 1864, an apparent error.  Age 101
given at time of March 1965 death would would conform to a June 1863 birth date.
The 1900 Census shows his birth date as June 1863, his headstone gives his birth
date as 1863, and a newspaper article on the occasion of his 96th birthday
specifies his birth date as Jun 14 1863.  His birth record, in which his middle
initial is given as K, also states his birth date as Jun 14 1863, with the entry
being based on the Family Bible.
