Event Notes Note (1) Birth date given in 1900 Census as April 1865. Note (2) Age 16 in 1913 marriage record would put birth in about 1897, and birth date in SSDI is Mar 10 1897, but birth date was given in 1959 marriage record as Mar 10 1901. However, age 11 in 1910 Census would put birth in about 1899, and 1900 Census specifies March 1899. Although Lewis County birth records show her birth as Mar 19 1897, that was a delayed entry recorded on Feb 5 1962 and, in view of the foregoing census data, is considered suspect. Note (3) In 1910, listed as a granddaughter in the household of Calvin H. & Lucy C. Jenkins. Note (4) Daughter of John & Virginia Jenkins.
