    • While her headstone shows a birth date of Apr 9 1828, researcher Don Norman states her birth as 1816, and grandson John Washington Hart, in a family information survey completed in 1931, reports it as Apr 9 1814. But those two dates are considered unlikely given the birth of her last child in 1871.
