(10) Doddridge County WV Marriages 1845-1937, Wes Cochran, 156 Gihon Meadows, Apt 150, Parkersburg, WV 26101 (Jan 1993), Identified as Noah Simons, 26, of Ritchie Co; and Maggie L. Hart, 24, of Doddridge Co. Married Jul 7 1907. (11) Doddridge County Birth Records, West Union, WV, Identified in birth record as Lovina M. Hart, born Mar 7 1883 to William & Catherine Hart. The record of her July 1907 marriage to Noah Simons, in which she was identified as Maggie L. Hart, gives her age as 24, which would be consistent with her documented birthdate. But her obituary, identifying her as Maggie Hart Simons and providing her birthdate as Mar 18 1884, also gives her age at death as 44y 8m 28d, which would calculate to a birthdate of Feb 17 1883. The Mar 7 1883 date is considered correct. BR Bk 1, p. 127.
