Note (2) Birth date given in 1900 Census as May 1859, and age in death record puts it at May 13 1859. But age 17 given at Aug 1874 marriage would put birth in about 1857, while birth date on headstone is 1860. But in the 1860 Census, she was age 4, with younger sister Susan age 2, thus putting Eliza's birth in about 1856, consistent with the 1857 in her marriage record.
