(30) Doddridge County Marriage Records, West Union, WV, MR Bk 6, p. 168. (31) Marriage record of daughter. Event Notes Note (1) Birth date given in death record as Dec 24 1844, and age 15 in 1860 would also put it in about 1844/45. But the 1900 Census shows it as Dec 1846, while age 9 in the 1850 Census would put it in about 1841. Marriage record gives birthplace as Harrison County, but death record shows it as Doddridge County. Note (2) Death record in Jan 1933 gives age as 67 and specifies birth date as Mar 1 1865. Age 11 in 1880 Census would put birth in about 1869, as would age 24 at time of his marriage on Apr 29 1893. Since the Census places him chronologically between sisters Sarepta (age 13) and Sarah (age 9), we find the 1869 birth date more likely. Doddridge County birth records show a Ruber (sic) Vincent born Mar 1 1868, son of William & Margrett Vincent. The record is in the form of a typed ledger transcribed from the original handwritten record, and the possibility cannot be discounted that this is the same child. Note (3) Listed as an unnamed female. Note (4) Birth date on headstone is Dec 20 1874, but birth record shows it as Dec 8 1874. Note (5) in household of son-in-law Earl Lattea and his second wife, Daisy
