Sources: (1) Doddridge County Marriage Records, West Union, WV. (2) 1900 Census, Doddridge County, WV (New Milton District) (3) Headstone (year only) (4) Ritchie County Death Records, Harrisville, WV. (5) Findagrave.com. (6) Death record of wife. (7) WV State Dept of Health, Div of Vital Statistics, Death Certificate (http://www.wvculture.org/vrr/va_dcsearch.aspx) (8) Headstone. Event Notes Note (1) Age 25 in Feb 1879 marriage record would put birth in about 1853 or 1854. But age 21 in 1870 Census puts it in about 1849. Death record gives birth date as Dec 13 1847, while the 1900 Census shows it as Dec 1848. Date on headstone appears to be 1848, but is not clear and could be interpreted as 1849. Note (2) Death date is shown on headstone as Oct 19 1926, but death record states Oct 29 1926, with burial at Metz Cemetery on Oct 31 1926.
