Event Notes
Note (1) Birth date given as Dec 28 1866 in obituary and on headstone, and age 21 at
time of Aug 1888 marriage would also put birth in about 1866 or 1867.  But 1900
Census shows his age as 31, with birth date Apr 1869.  W.B. Haught's "Genealogy
of the Haught Family of America," 1948, pp. 166 and 169, incorrectly identifies
him as Jacob Leeson.
Note (2) Birth date given in 1900 Census as Sep 1870, age 29.  But her age was one in
the 1870 Census (enumerated in September) and 11 in the 1880 Census (enumerated
in June).  Birth date on headstone is 1868.
