Event Notes Note (1) Age 34 in 1920 marriage record would put birth in about 1895 or 1896. But the 1900 Census shows her birth date as Jun 1882, age 17, the oldest of 8 children. Note (2) Birth date given in marriage record as Mar 15 1928 in West Union, while "Davis - The Settlers of Salem, WV," p. 324, reports birth date as Mar 15 1926. But her birth record indicates Mar 15 1923 at Long Run, the same date reported in her SSDI entry. Age 7 in 1930 Census would also put birth in about 1923.
