Event Notes Note (1) Birth information given in marriage record as Dec 18 1924 in Newberne, Gilmer Co, WV. But her obituary states Mar 27 1925 in Burnt House, WV, which is in Ritchie County. She may have overstated her age at the time of her marriage in order to make herself 21. The birth date on her headstone is 1925. Note (2) Headstone states born and died on March 8, 1946, which is incorrect.
