Event Notes Note (1) Birth date specified in death record as Jun 15 1880, but 1900 Census shows it as Jun 1879. Her age was given as one in the 1880 Census, enumerated on Jun 15 1880.

Birthplace given in marriage record as Ritchie County, but her birth record states Auburn in Doddridge County, which is on the Ritchie County line near the Ritchie County community of Auburn.
