(24) 1930 Census. Event Notes Note (1) Age given as 52 in both 1870 and 1880, putting birth in either 1818 or 1828. Ages given in marriage record and death record put it in 1828 or 1829, corresponding to the 1880 Census. The 1870 Census thus appears to be in error. Note (2) Death record states burial only as West Union. Note (3) Also in household in 1870 Census: Sarah Jennings, 34, b. Ireland; Mariah Jennings, 1, b. WVa. Note (4) Age 76 in death record would put birth in about 1838, but age 69 in 1910 Census would put birth in about 1841, while 1900 Census states birth date as Feb 1842. Note (5) Age 46 in 1908 marriage record would put birth in about 1862, while her obituary states her birth date as Feb 10 1864. But age 10 in the 1870 Census puts it in about 1860. Note (6) Age 36y 2m 22d at death calculates to a birth date of Apr-28-1865, while birth date on headstone is 1860. Age was 6 in 1870 Census and 15 in 1880, but age 25 in 1888 marriage record would put birth in about 1863, while 1900 Census specifies May 1863. Note (7) Age 32 in 1910 Census would put birth in about 1878. Note (8) Birth date given in 1900 Census as Sep 1879, age 20. But he was not present for the 1880 Census, and age 28 in the 1910 Census would put birth in about 1882. His WW I draft registration states his birth date as Sep 4 1881.
