    Notes:

    Birth:
    Doddridge County birth records indicate a birth date of May 9 1875 for Hettie Richards and Hattie Richards, twin daughters of Evan & Ellen Richards. Informant for the births was George Clice, relationship "No Kin." But Hettie's Social Securtiy Death Index shows her birth date as April 10 1875, as does her headstone and death record, and the 1900 Census also states it as April 1875. The death record of her twin sister also indicates a birth date of April 10 1875. The discrepancies are probably the result of clerical errors, since the birth records are typewritten ledger entries transcibed from original handwritten records. It is also possible that they are the result of incorrect reporting by the informant.

    Hettie married John A. WILSON 26 Apr 1894, Ritchie Co, WV. John (son of John Marshall WILSON and Rebecca J. CLAYTON) was born 31 Mar 1869, Pennsboro, Ritchie Co, WV; died 15 Jun 1935, Pennsboro, Ritchie Co, WV; was buried , EUB Church Cemetery, Pennsboro, Ritchie Co, WV. [Group Sheet]
