(3) Harrison County Marriage Records, Clarksburg, WV, Identified as David Hilkey, widowed, 64, b. Grant Co, res. Harrison Co, son of Jacob & Nancy Hilkey; and Christina Ringer, widowed, 47, b. Pendleton Co, res. Harrison Co, dau of Levi & Phoeba Champ. Married Sep 30 1899 in Clarksburg, officiated by minister Guy Crook. http://www.wvculture.org/vrr/va_view.aspx?Id=52260&Type=Marriage. (4) Headstone (year only) (5) Findagrave.com. (6) Findagrave.com, Headstone inscription: Mother, Christina Lawlis, 1858-1936. (7) Harrison County Marriage Records, Clarksburg, WV. Event Notes Note (1) Birthplace given in 1871 marriage record as Hardy County, but in 1899 marriage record as Grant County. Note (2) Birthplace given in one marriage record as Pendleton County and in another marriage record as Hardy County. But her death record states Alleghany Co, Virginia, while her son's birth record states Bath Co, Virginia. There are similar discrepancies with her year of birth, ranging from 1846 in her death record to 1858 on her headstone, and other aberrations in the various census records. But her birth record dispels all doubt, showing that she was born on Dec 3 1853 in Pendleton County, birth name Dina Christina Champ.
