[sic] & Permelia; and Ellender Lipscomb, 17, of Doddridge Co, dau of James F. & Nancy E. It is noted that husband's father was incorrectly identified as James R. Davis, rather than William R. Davis. Susie Davis Nicholson (p. 101) incorrectly reports marriage date as Sep 18 1879. (21) 1870 Census, Doddridge County, WV (South West Twp). (22) Findagrave.com. (23) 1910 Census, Marion County, WV.

Event Notes Note (1) But age 51 given at time of 1871 marriage would put birth in about 1820, while age 70 in the 1880 Census puts it in about 1810.. Note (2) Birth date given as Aug 1858 in 1900 Census, and age was given as 20 at time of Nov 1877 marriage. But death record states his age on Feb 11 1939 as 84y 5m 21d, with birth date given as Aug 20, year not specified. The death record thus implies a birth date of Aug 20th or 21st 1854, which appears to be incorrect. Birth place in death record given as Straight Fork in Doddridge County, but marriage record shows his birth place as Ritchie County. Note (3) In 1880, in household of brother Marcus.
