Event Notes Note (1) Death record states birth date as Feb 13 1853, but age 74y 7d would put birth date at Feb 13 1863. The discrepancy is resolved by the 1900 Census, which shows age as 37, with birth date Feb 1863. Note (2) Birth date given in 1900 Census as Oct 1884, but birth record shows it as Oct 15 1885.
