|
| 15304 | Headstone shows birthdate as Jun 21 1892. But 1900 Census gives birthdate as Jun 1893, and death record specifies Jun 21 1893, which conforms to birth record entry for unnamed female Britton on that date. | BRITTON, Stella J. (I21151)

| 15306 | Headstone states 1866, and age 26 given at time of 1889 marriage would put birth in about 1863, but death record states that he died Apr 22 1941 at age 76y3m7d, which would put birth at Jan 15 1865. | HART, John Eli (I313)

|
| 15309 | Headstone states that she died "in the 70th year of her age," which calculates to a birth year of about 1830. But her marriage record of Feb 18 1858 states her age as 24y 2m 10d, which calculates to a birth date of Dec 8 1833. | STOUT, Julia Ann (I102652)

| 15324 | Helen Magill White (b. November 28, 1853, Providence, Rhode Island d. October 28, 1944, Kittery Point, Maine) was the first woman to earn a Ph.D. in the United States. Raised in a Quaker family, White always believed that she was deserving of the same education as a man. In 1859, the family moved to Boston, where Helen signed up as the only female student in the Boston Public Latin School, where her father was submaster.[1] Her father was the president of Swarthmore College, which she attended as an undergraduate in 1873. She was a member of the first class to graduate from the university. She continued studies in the classics at Swarthmore and Boston University, where she earned her Ph.D in 1877. After that, up until 1881, she studied at the University of Cambridge, in England, placing third in her tripos (honors examinations) at Newnham College. [2] After being the principal for a year at a private school in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, she was selected in 1883 to organize Howard Collegiate Institute, in West Bridgewater, Massachusetts. She was the director of Howard until 1887, when she resigned. She taught for a short amount of time at Evelyn College, a women's annex to Princeton University. She then suffered an illness for the next few years, while she taught at a high school. Helen met Andrew D. White, the retired president of Cornell University, while presenting a paper at the American Social Science Association in 1887, and married him in September 1890. White was also a college classmate of Magill's father, Edward Hicks Magill. She accompanied her husband to his diplomatic posts in St. Petersburg (1892-94) and Berlin (1897-1903). She didnt participate in public or educational affairs after that, except to oppose women's suffrage publicly in 1913. After White died in 1918, she lived abroad and in Ithaca, New York, and then retired to Kittery Point, Maine, where she died in 1944.[3] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helen_Magill_White | MAGILL, Helen (I75737)

| 15325 | Helen was known for her spunky personality and an eye for rare dolls and antiques. She spent many years as the owner of Helens Fads and Fashions, where she sold antiques and clothing in the community for over 20 years. Her shop was more than a business - it was a haven of history, a gathering place for friends and a reflection of her unique spirit. Helen did countless fashion shows with vintage clothing in area nursing homes and businesses to bring the past back to life. She enjoyed her doll collection and was a member of the Doll Club in Bridgeport for many years. She and her father as well as her late husband Jim were avid roller skaters. They frequented area skating rinks where they figure skated with lights on their skates. With her CB handle The Blonde Hurricane, she often talked to her dad Bart, known as the Mountain Boy. | ASH, Helen Deloris (I23177)

| 15336 | Henry Tucker was born in Maryland in 1744, the son of Henry Tucker and Anna Thompson. He and his brother, John, moved to Monongalia County in 1774. Both Henry and John enlisted in the Revolutionary War and served as Indian spies, scouting the land and waters from the Monongahela River to the Ohio River. On September 22, 1832, at the age of 88, Henry Tucker testified under oath that he was first stationed at Fort Coons on Booth's Creek (the west fork of the Monongahela River) under the command of Captain James Booth. He extensively traversed the Ohio River, Monongahela River, Bingammon Creek, Buffalo Creek, Ten Mile Creek, and Middle Island Creek (present-day Doddridge County). He was frequently successful in the discovery of Indian signs and apprising settlements of approaching danger. He suffered much hardship and inconvenience from fatigue and hunger. On one occasion, after being unsuccessful at procuring game, he subsisted solely on tree buds for six days. After his captain, James Booth, was killed, he re-enlisted and was at various times under the command of Joseph Gregory, James Tibbs and Thomas Pindal. Henry was present for at least two Indian raids. When Captain James Booth was murdered, Henry helped track down the Indians that killed him. And in 1787 when a band of Indians murdered and captured members of the Dragoo and Straight families in present-day Marion County, Henry and other Indian scouts were sent out to capture the offenders. On November 1, 1831, Henry was assigned 70 acres that were situated on Nutters Fork, in Doddridge County, at that time still Tyler County, Virginia. His land abutted the property of Benjamin Knight. He was living on Nutters Fork at the time he made the above sworn statement and gives the names of his neighbors as character references, They were Captain Nathan Davis, Ephraim Bee and Squire Sayers. Captain Nathan Davis was the founder of West Union and Ephraim Bee was a prominent Doddridge County blacksmith and politician. Henry's will was written on September 14, 1834, and probated at the January 1835 Court term in Tyler County, (W)VA. It was probated in Tyler County because Doddridge County had not yet been formed. His place of burial is unknown, but he is most likely buried at the Kinney Family Cemetery on Nutters Fork. He was the grandfather of Susannah Tucker, the mother of Luke Jacos children, who my last two articles were about. Some of Henry Tuckers descendants who still live in Doddridge County include the Knights, Dotsons, Stinesprings and Kinneys.

Gaston and Ethel Gaston were double cousins, in that they were both second cousins (both were great-grandchildren of John Gaston, Jr. (b. 1752 in NJ)) and also fourth cousins (both were great-great-great-grandchildren of John Smith (b. 1699)). | Family: Henson Davisson GASTON / Ethel GASTON (F483)
|
| 15338 | Her 1866 marriage gives her middle initial as M, with birthplace Ritchie County, but her 1890 marriage record gives middle initial as N, with birthplace Doddridge County. Age 19 in 1866 marriage record puts birth in about 1847, but age 38 in 1890 marriage record would put it in about 1852. In the 1900 Census, she is listed as Rachael M, 53, born Apr 1847. | JONES, Rachel M. (I45940)
|
| 15339 | Her 1883 marriage records indicates her birth as about 1835 in Wood County, while her 1898 marriage record indicates about 1855 in Belpre, Ohio. The 1900 Census shows it as March 1847 in West Virginia. | DAY, Lydia (I59969)
|
| 15340 | Her 1918 marriage record indicates that she was born in Harrison County in about 1897, with her name given as Pearl Ireta Cutright. But the West Virginia Births Index shows it as 1899 in Upshur County, name listed as Ireta Pearl Cutright. Birth date on her headstone is 1900. | CUTRIGHT, Pearl Ireta (I122391)
|
| 15341 | Her 1942 marriage record states age as 16, birthplace West Union; but her 1947 marriage record states age as 18, born Mar 14 1928 in Parkersburg. | TINNEY, Betty Jo (I78938)
|
| 15342 | Her age was 11 in the 1860 Census, but she was not listed in the 1850 Census. | BRITTON, Eliza Jane (I11685)
|
| 15343 | Her age was given as 22 in her 1865 marriage record, but also as 22 in the 1870 Census. | DOAK, Elizabeth (I70418)
|
| 15344 | Her age was given as 26, born in England, in daughter Ellen's 1894 birth record. But age 54 reported at time of Sep 1926 marriage would put birth in about 1872. | BROWN, Jessie Booker (I6312)
|
| 15345 | Her age was understated by one year in her 1963 marriage record. Her birth record shows that she was born on Jul 23 1924 in Blandville. Both of her marriage records indicate her birthplace as Market, which is a smaller community within Blandville. | COPLIN, Helen Rose (I26351)
|
| 15346 | Her birth date given in 1931 marriage record as Jan 20 1910, age 21, but in 1940 marriage record as Jan 20 1915, age 25. | MALSON, Ruth Naomi (I104593)
|
| 15347 | Her birth date in the 1900 Census is April 1858, age 42. But the April 1855 birth date in her death record is consistent with the ages 24 and 54 in the 1880 and 1910 censuses. Age 76y 5m in her death record calculates to a birth date of Apr 19 1855. Her headstone has only the year 1855. | PICKERAL, Isabelle (I98607)
|
| 15348 | Her birth date is given in the 1900 Census as July 1860, age 39. But she was age 5 in the 1860 Census and the date on her headstone is 1855. Her death record specifies her birth date as Jul 30 1855. Her middle name is given in her death record as Ada, but in her will as Agatha. | BRANNON, Mary Agatha (I103696)
|
| 15349 | Her birth date is shown in her death record as 10 Feb 1905, while the date on her headstone is 1906. A birth record on file in Jackson County for an unnamed daughter of J. H & Lola McCoy, born on 10 Feb 1906 in Kenna, is presumed to pertain to Wavie/Wavy Bell McCoy. This is in keeping with her age 4 in the 1910 Census and age 13 in the 1920 Census, the youngest of the family's four children. | MCCOY, Wavie Bell (I140091)
|
| 15350 | Her birth date was incorrectly given in the 1900 Census as April 1890. Her birth record and headstone show it to be Apr 29 1889. | FLEMING, Grace Victoria (I24857)
