  • Name Anna Gay HILEMAN  [2, 3]
    Birth 23 Feb 1883  Gilmer Co, WV Find all individuals with events at this location  [2, 3] 
    • Phipps Genealogy reports birth date as Feb 24 1883, and Hileman Genealogy reports Feb 24 1882 in Ritchie County, all at variance with official records and other reliable sources.
    Gender Female
    Census 1900  Southwest District, Doddridge Co, WV Find all individuals with events at this location 
    Residence Smithfield, Wetzel Co, WV Find all individuals with events at this location  [1, 2, 3, 4] 
    Death 30 Jun 1939  Clarksburg, Harrison Co, WV Find all individuals with events at this location  [3, 5] 
    • "Genealogy of Phipps Family" gives death date as Jun 28 1939, and "Hileman Genealogy" reports death as occurring on June 31 [sic] 1939 in Wetzel County. But her obituary, dated Jun 30 1939, states that she "died this morning" as "a patient in a Clarksburg hospital," which also corresponds with her death record. Her obituary and death record incorrectly identifiy her mother as Juliet Nutter, rather than Juliet Hart.
    Burial Mannington Memorial Park Cemetery, Mannington, Marion Co, WV Find all individuals with events at this location  [2, 3] 
    Notes 
    • Identified as "Gay" Phipps in all references (i.e., obituaries of family members) except for her father's obituary ("Anna E." Phipps), her own obituary ("Anna Day" Phipps) and her husband's obituary, of which there are two versions. One version identifies her as Anna J. Hileman Phipps, while the other has it as Anna Gay Phipps. The latter form is considered to be correct, with the other middle names or initials being typographical or editorial errors. It is clear, however, that she was known almost exclusively by her middle name Gay.
