Event Notes Note (1) Age 38 in her 1918 marriage record was understated by 14 years, probably because her husband was so much younger than her. Age 22 in her 1889 marriage record conformed to her actual age. The 1900 Census shows her age as 33, b. July 1866, while her death record states Jul 22 1865,
