  • Name Ellis George THOMPSON
    Birth 26 Jul 1898  Doddridge Co, WV Find all individuals with events at this location  [1, 2] 
    • Although his marriage record in March 1916 states his age to be 21 as of his last birthday, Jul 26 1915, thus putting his birth date at Jul 26 1894, and his death record states his birth date as Jul 26 1897, his birth record shows his actual birth date to be Jul 26 1898. Inasmuch as his parents were married on Sep 8 1897, it would appear that he inflated his age at the time of his marriage.
