(26) Donald Edward Ramage, Doddridge County Cemeteries, Vol. IV, 4117 Almaville Rd, Smyna TN 37167. Event Notes Note (1) Findagrave reports birth date as Dec 29 1827. Headstone has only the year 1827. Note (2) Age 18 at 1850 Census puts birth date at about 1832, while age 29 at 1860 Census puts it at about 1831. But age 40 at time of Dec 1879 marriage would put it at about 1839, and age 73 given at time of Sep 1907 death would put it at about 1834. The earlier date is considered more reliable.
