Event Notes Note (1) Birthplace stated as Harrison County in marriage record, but as Marion County in death record. Age 8 reported in 1870 Census would put birth in about 1862. Note (2) She does not appear with the rest of her family in the 1870 Census. Note (3) Although death record states birth date as Jan 4 1871, he appears in the Census of Harrison County enumerated in Aug 1870, with age given as one. Age at time of Sep 1890 marriage was given as 20. It thus appears likely that his birth date was actually Jan 4 1870.Name Index
