Married Jan 24 1894 in Salem. MR p. 374 : www.wvculture.org/vrr/va_view.aspx?Id=11792612&Type=Marriage. Event Notes Note (1) Age 26 in 1880 marriage record would put birth in about 1854, an apparent clerical error; age 48 in 1894 marriage record puts it at about 1846, and the 1900 Census specifies Oct 1846. However, his death record states birth date as Oct 4 1845, while his headstone shows it as Oct 12 1844. There is also a conflict with his date of death, with the death record stating Feb 14 1922, while he headstone has Feb 22 1922. Note (2) Birth date on headstone is 1846, but 1900 Census shows it Feb 1848, and obituary states Feb 22 1848. Age 2 in the 1850 Census and age 32 in the 1880 Census also indicate an 1848 birth year.Name Index
