(6) 1900 Census, Doddridge County, WV (McClellan District) (7) Doddridge County Death Records, West Union, WV, Identified as Mariah Bates, widow, died Jul 17 1913 at Center Point, age 102y 10m 17d, cause of death senile debility. (Note: Age at death calculates to a birth date of Aug 30 1810. But her headstone states her death date as Jul 18 1913, with age as 101y 10m (days omitted), which calculates to a birth date of about Sep 1811. Further clouding the issue is the 1900 Census, which gives her age as 80 and birth date as Sep 1819. This is in keeping with her age 52 in the 1870 Census and age 30 in 1850, while age 38 in 1860 would put birth in about 1822. A birth date of about 1815 is indicated by age 65 in 1880 and age 95 in 1910. Given all the evidence, it would appear that the Sep 1819 birth date given in the 1900 Census is the most credible, with her purported age inflated in later years.), DR p. 6 : http://www.wvculture.org/vrr/va_view.aspx?Id=5044859&Type=Death.
