Event Notes Note (1) 1900 Census shows birth date as Nov 1829. But obituary states that he "was born near Maulsby Bridge, Harrison county, Va., (now West Virginia) May 29, 1828, and was therefore 71 years, 9 months and 3 days old." Note (2) Middle initial appears to be S, but father's obituary gives it as L.
