Event Notes Note (1) Birthplace given in one marriage record as Pendleton County and in another marriage record as Hardy County. But her death record states Alleghany Co, Virginia, while her son's birth record states Bath Co, Virginia. There are similar discrepancies with her year of birth, ranging from 1846 in her death record to 1858 on her headstone, and other aberrations in the various census records. But her birth record dispels all doubt, showing that she was born on Dec 3 1853 in Pendleton County, birth name Dina Christina Champ.
