| 22951 | Susie Davis Nicholson states birthplace as Long Run in Harrison Co, with name spelled Puttman, while obituary says Long Run in Doddridge Co, with name spelled Putman. | PUTMAN, Octavia Blanch (I9231)
|
| 22952 | Susie Davis Nicholson was the author of four books of her family history, including the highly regarded "Davis - The Settlers of Salem, West Virginia." https://www.wvgw.net/harrison/books.htm | DAVIS, Susie Blanch (I47533)
|
| 22953 | Susie Davis Nicholson, "Davis - The Settlers of Salem, West Virginia," p. 371, reports birth date as Jun 30 1869. But death record shows it as Dec 30 1869. Age 9 in the 1880 Census and age 59 in the 1930 Census would put birth in about 1871. | NICHOLSON, John Calvin (I19627)
|
| 22954 | Susie Davis Nicholson, in "Davis - The Settlers of Salem WV," pp. 67-68, lists seven children for this family, omitting Eleanor. She states: "There appears to be missing children between the first and second. This has to be, we think, the family that lost seven children to diphtheria and buried them in a little plot by the stream where Tom's Fork meets Meathouse Fork Creek. When I was a child, this little cemetery stood just north of the iron bridge that spanned Meathouse Fork. The bridge was washed away in the flood of 1950 and was replaced by a cement bridge. "The cemetery was enclosed with a plank fence and was overgrown with weed and brambles. I well remember the story as told by the Alvin Randolph family, who lived nearby, of how a BEE family had had their children reaped early by the dread disease and had buried them there by the stream. It is very probably that the nearby Middle Island Cemetery had not yet been established. The children must have been buried there in the 1830's. This could have been none other than the children of Amaziah & Rhoda. "The board fence, briars, brambles and bridge are gone now, and few in the area remember the story of the family's tragic loss. Sheep graze over the little knoll where a single unmarked stone stands as a sentinel to mark this tragedy of the past." | Family: Amaziah BEE / Rhoda DAVIS (F14241)
|
| 22955 | Susie Davis Nicholson, p. 145, reports birth date as Jun 25 1917, but SSDI shows it as Jun 29 1917. | DAVIS, Candace Caroline (I47351)
|
| 22956 | Susie Davis Nicholson, p. 68, reports birth of Julia Ann Davis as Mar 5 1833 in Harrison Co. But death record of Julian (sic) Davis Waller shows her birth as Mar 20 1833 in Doddridge Co. Doddridge County was created by an act of the Virginia General Assembly on Feb 4 1845 from parts of Harrison, Lewis, Tyler, and Ritchie counties. | DAVIS, Julia Ann (I31120)
|
| 22957 | Susie Davis Nicholson, p. 73, reports birth date as 1833 and death date as Sep 3 1875, but "Ritchie County Cemeteries," p. 621, shows headstone death date as Mar 8 1873, with age at death 41y 9m (= b. Jun 8 1831). | DAVIS, Estella Ann (I38666)
|
| 22958 | Susie Davis Nicholson, p. 83, reports birth date as Apr 21 1844 and death date as 1877. But "Ritchie County Cemeteries," p. 486, reports death date on headstone as Jul 7 1876, with age 37y 2m 18d. That computes to a birth date of Apr 19 1839. In the 1870 Census of Ritchie County she was identified as Elcie C. Brown, age 26, which would correspond to a birth date in 1844. Similarly, her marriage record in Feb 1860 states her age as 16. | THARP, Elcy Caroline (I31685)
|
| 22959 | Susie Davis Nicolson reports birth date as Mar 6 1917, but SSDI shows it as Mar 6 1916. | JENKINS, Edra L. (I19165)

| 22977 | The "History of Mercer County" reports John Shirk's birthplace as Germany. But the 1850 and 1860 censuses indciate Pennsylvania. | SHIRK, John (I128415)
|
| 22978 | The "McIntyre" spelling is found in his marriage record and is used for himself and all family members in his obituary. Among others, survived by five grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren, one step-grandson, and one step-granddaughter. | MCINTYRE, James Wilson (I32430)
|
| 22979 | The 11 Sep 1880 birth date on his headstone appears to be incorrect. Age 28 in his Feb 1903 marriage record would put his birth in about 1874 or 1875, and age 35 in the 1910 Census puts in in about 1875. His World War I draft registration in 1918 shows his birth date as 11 Sep 1873, age 45, while his World War II draft registration in 1942 shows it as 11 Sep 1887, age 55. | BROWN, Wilbur Martin Avery (I79953)
|

The adult male was probably Philip himself, although the form was intended to enumerate only the non-named persons in the household. 1850 Census, Hardy Co, Virginia (now West Virginia), enumerated in Sep 1850: Philip McNemar, 43, farmer; Mary Ann, 40; Samuel A, 19, laborer; James S, 18, laborer; Ann R, 16; John W, 15; William B, 14; Beckwith A, 10; David C, 5; Sarah E, 4; Lydia M, 2; Susan C, one month. 1860 Census, Harrison Co, Virginia (now West Virginia): Mary A.

| 22987 | The 1850 Federal Census Slave Schedule for Doddridge County, enumerated on Jul 16 1850, contains the following entry: Slave owner: Franklin Maxwell. Description of slaves: 1 black male, age 46 1 black female, age 23 1 mulatto female, age 3 1 black female, age 1 The 1860 Federal Census Slave Schedule for Doddridge County, enumerated on Jun 1 1860, contains the following entry: Slave owner: Frank Maxwell Description of slaves: 1 black male, age 56 1 black female, age 30 1 black female, age 12 1 black male, age 10 1 black female, age 8 1 black female, age 5 The following in an excerpt from an article about Franklin Maxwell's son Lewis that appeared in the February 21, 1932, issue of the "Sunday Morning Exponent-Telegram." Part of it quotes Lewis Maxwell directly: "The [Jones-Imboden] raiders went into camp right at my father's home at the head of Bluestone creek," Mr. Maxwell said. "The officers occupied rooms in our home and my mother and a slave, 'Aunt Till,' cooked for and fed them." ... Besides "Aunt Till," the Franklin Maxwell family had four slaves, all members of one family. The man slave was "Anthony," who Maxwell bought in the Wood County jail for $250 from a man named Henderson, whose cattle Maxwell bought. The price was low, as Henderson had much trouble keeping Anthony on the West Virginia side of the river, the slave having a natural inclination to live in a free state. The colored couple had two daughters and a son. "Aunt Till" was a wedding present to Mrs. Franklin Maxwell, a gift made by her father. Because of that fact, as well as the long period she served in the Maxwell family, "Aunt Till" was very much endeared to the Maxwells, and the colored folk were very fond of their master's family. Franklin Maxwell, as stated, once bought a slave, but he never sold one. He was offered $1,600 by a Virginian for the two slave girls, but spurned the offer, and the son declares he would not have sold them at any price. The Maxwell slaves were given their freedom before the Civil War, but the old couple remained on the premises, died there, and were buried near their former master and mistress. The children were presented with a farm in Taylor County by their former master. He was kind to them and they respected him to the point of devotion. After "Anthony" had been given his freedom, he rode to Parkersburg on the first train that ran over the Grafton-Parkersburg division of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad system a few years before the Civil War began. 1870 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (Southwest Twp), enumerated on Aug 22 1870: Franklin Maxwell, 55, farmer, value of real estate $80,000, value of personal estate $40,000; Frances, 50; Rector, 22, farmer; Williams B, 20, farmer; Harriet P, 16; Franklin, 12; Frances J, 10; Susan A, 8. 1880 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (West Union District), enumerated on Jun 4 1880: Franklin Maxwell, 66, farmer; wife Frances, 52; son Rector, 31; dau Harriet, 25; dau Susan A, 18; servant Sarah Waldo, 28, single; ward Rebecca Shreeves, 12. | Family: Franklin MAXWELL / Frances Jane REYNOLDS (F13448)
|
| 22988 | The 1850 Federal Census Slave Schedule for Doddridge County, enumerated on Jul 16 1850, contains the following entry: Slave owner: William Shull. Description of slave: Mulatto female, age 7. The 1860 Federal Census Slave Schedule for Doddridge County, enumerated on Jun 1 1860, contains the following entry: Slave owner: Wm. Shull.

Va. | Family: William SHULL / Sarah Ann JOHNSTON (F33039)
|
| 22989 | The 1859 birth date on her headstone (erected by a grandson many years after her death) appears to be incorrect. Age 8 in the 1870 Census would put her birth in about 1862, age 19 in 1880 puts it in 1862, and the 1900 Census shows it as Feb 1863, as does her death record. Findagrave reports it as Feb 10 1863. Her birthplace is given as Randolph County in her marriage record, but her death record states Lewis County. | KNAPP, Victoria Ann (I64573)
|
| 22990 | The 1860 Census of Doddridge County gives age as 34 (b. ca 1826), born in Virginia, while the 1870 Census gives age 48 (b. ca 1822), born in Maryland, and the 1880 Census gives age 60 (b. ca 1820), born in Maryland. Her death record in May 1892 gives age as 63 (b. ca 1829), born in Barbour Co; both age and birthplace are considered incorrect. Brad Spiker specifies birthdate as Nov 16 1821. Don Norman, in "The Descendants of Josiah Hart," reports birth as ca 1828, probably based on her death record. | HART, Mary (I6463)
|
| 22991 | The 1860 Census of Hardy County reported the following persons in the household of Joseph McNemar III, with their ages: Joseph McNemar III (33, occupation farmer), Ann R. (27), and Laura E. (10). The basis for Joseph being identified as "the third," just as his father Joseph was identified as "Junior" in the 1850 Census, is not clear. | MCNEMAR, Joseph III (I29026)
|
| 22992 | The 1860 Census shows age as 35, putting birth in about 1825. But the 1870 Census shows his age as 53, putting birth in about 1817, and the 1880 Census shows his age as 63, also putting birth in about 1817. Don Norman's "Descendants of Christopher Nutter" reports birth date as 1818, corresponding to age 74 in death record. | NUTTER, John (I6462)
|
| 22993 | The 1860 Census shows Ammi with his first wife, Deborah, but he was with Almira in the 1870 Census. | Family: Ammi Almanzia BROWN / Almira SANDERS (F1277)
|
| 22994 | The 1860 Federal Census Slave Schedule for Doddridge County, enumerated on Jun 1 1860, contains the following entry: Slave owner: L. R. Charter Description of slaves: 1 mulatto female, age 28 1 mulatto female, age 2 The 1870 Census of West Union, enumerated on Jun 6 1870, found the following persons in the Charter household: L. R. Charter, 53, b. Massachusetts, physician; Ella Charter, 17, b. Va; C. Atchison Charter, 13, b. Va; Mary E. Fraser, 25, b. Ohio, housekeeper. Dr. Charter's wife Lucia had died three years before. Five months after that census, the housekeeper became his second wife. | Family: Lathrop Russell CHARTER / Lucia M. HALE (F24739)
|
| 22995 | The 1870 and 1880 Censuses listed him as still living at home with his parents, and the 1900 Census listed him and his mother in the same household as well. | GASTON, Hugh (I961)
|
| 22996 | The 1870 Census lists Andrew N. & Emeline [sic] Hart as being 22 and 25 years old and having one child, Francis E. Hart. Andrew & Emaline also had a child Frances in 1887. 1880 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (Central District), enumerated on Jun 14 1880: Anty N. Hart, 32, farmer; wife Emaline, 34; son Francis E, 12; son William L, 9; son Joseph W, 7; dau Mary M, 7; son John W, 5; dau Edith C, 2. 1900 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (Central District), enumerated on Jun 14 1900: Andrew N. Hart, 52, b. Sep 1847, farmer, married 33 yrs; wife Sarah E, 52, b. Aug 1847, married 28 yrs, mother of 8 children (still living illegible); dau Denovas M, 18, b. Jan 1882; dau Dalla L, 10, b. Jul 1889; dau Etta W, 7, b. Mar 1893; son Alaska, 3, b. Sep (or Apr) 1896. 1910 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (Central District), enumerated on Apr 20 1910: Andrew N. Hart, 63, b. W.Va., father b. Maryland, mother b. Ohio, farmer, married 21 yrs; wife Sarah E., 64, mother of 3 children (all still living); dau Etta W, 17; son Alaska S, 13. According to Doddridge County Probate Records (Bk 2, p. 227), Sarah E. (i.e. Elizabeth, his 2nd wife) Hart was "appointed guardian of Alaska Hart & Etta Hart, orphans of Andrew N. Hart." | HART, Andrew Nutter (I6077)
|
| 22997 | The 1870 Census of Doddridge Co, WV (South West Twp) lists Martha Hess, age 25, living in the household of Benjamin F. & Martha Wilson, along with Marion E. Hess and Lidia L. Hess, ages 3 and 1 respectively. This is a different Martha Hess. | HESS, Martha (I3823)
|
| 22998 | The 1870 Census, enumerated on Aug 4 1870, states age as 17 days, but birth date as June. The 1900 Census states his birth date as May 1870, and his death record specifies May 24 1870. | GABBERT, Augustus "Gus" (I67019)
|
| 22999 | The 1874 birth date on his headstone is incorrect, as his birth record shows it to be Apr 15 1871. This conforms to his age 8 in the 1880 Census. The 1900 Census also incorrectly shows his birth date as Apri 1873. But his death record, his Social Security application, and his obituary all indicate his birth date as Apr 15 1869. This is incorrect, not only because of his birth record, but also because he did not appear in the 1870 Census, | ASHER, Isaac Freeman "Ike" (I103758)
|
| 23000 | The 1880 Census indicates a birth date of December 1879, but his birth record shows it as 23 August 1879. | FLINT, Dorsey L. (I99979)
