Event Notes Note (1) Marriage bond is dated Jul 9 1841, but the minister's list of marriage returns indicates the date of marriage as Jul 3 1841. It is likely that the marriage was actually on or shortly after the date of the marriage bond. http://www.wvculture.org/vrr/va_view.aspx?Id=258112&Type=Marriage http://www.wvculture.org/vrr/va_view.aspx?Id=37055&Type=Marriage Note (2) Enumerated in the household in 1870 was Margaret Jarvis, 73, relationship not stated. In 1880, she was enumerated in the same household as Margaret Jervis, 83, widowed, mother-in-law. She was also enumerated in the household next to the Leathermans in the 1860 Census of Doddridge County. Note (3) Death date on headstone is Jun 10 1912, while her death record (name given as Maggie Jones) states Jun 11 1912. Her obituary in the "West Union Herald" of Thursday, Jun 13 1912 contains conflicting statements regarding exactly when she died, stating first that she died on "Monday evening," which would be June 10th, then stating that she died on "June 11, 1912, aged 81 years and 11 months." The obituary also spells her name Majie, a form not seen elsewhere. Note (4) Birth date on headstone is 1839.
