But his son Robert's birth record and son Albert's death record state St. Marys (Pleasants County), which is also where the family was living in 1900. Birth date given in death record as Aug 5 1898, but the 1900 Census shows it as Aug 1900, with age specified as 9 months at the time of the June 1900 enumeration.
