Event Notes
Note (1) Age 21 in 1864 marriage record puts birth in about 1843, corresponding to age
20 at time of military discharge earlier that year.  But age 48 in 1887 marriage
record puts birth in about 1839, while the 1900 Census states July 1834, age 65.
Death record of daughter gives her father's birthplace as Pennsylvania, but
his own marriage record shows it as Marion County, WV.  Census records also
indicate West Virginia.
