Keyser, Mineral Co, WV  [1, 2, 3] |
- Death date on gravestone at the IOOF Cemetery in West Union is 1862. But the date in her death record and on the monument intended for her at the Williams Maxwell Cemetery is Oct 22 1864, consistent with the Oct 1864 birth date in the 1900 Census. She was age 6 in the 1870 Census, with her name entered as Bird McGowan.

- Although there is a large upright monument for her at the Williams Maxwell Family Cemetery in New Milton, where her husband is buried, the death date was never inscribed. Rather, there is a small flat marker for her at the Odd Fellows section of Blockhouse Hill Cemetery in West Union. The birth date on that flat marker is incorrectly inscribed as 1862. Her death record also shows her burial at "I.O.O.F., West Union."
