Event Notes Note (1) Death date on headstone is Jun 10 1912, while her death record (name given as Maggie Jones) states Jun 11 1912. Her obituary in the "West Union Herald" of Thursday, Jun 13 1912 contains conflicting statements regarding exactly when she died, stating first that she died on "Monday evening," which would be June 10th, then stating that she died on "June 11, 1912, aged 81 years and 11 months." The obituary also spells her name Majie, a form not seen elsewhere. Note (2) Age 81y 7m 12d in death record calculates to a birth date of Aug 3 1854. Note (3) In household of son Homer. Note (4) Birth date given in marriage record as Jan 14 1862. But she was age 10 in the 1870 Census, and date on headstone is 1860.
