But headstone has 1847, which is also more in line with other records. Note (2) Birth date on headstone is 1840, which is inconsistent with all other records. Age 18 in her 1869 marriage record puts birth in about 1851, the 1900 Census states her birth date as March 1851, and her death record specifies Mar 5 1851.
