| Notes |
- Nancy was always sensitive about her age, and no one in the family was ever sure exactly when she was born. The official Jan 19 1884 birth date was provided at the time of the delayed recording of her birth record in 1944 and was based principally on the testimony of her older sister Rosa. Age 23 given at the time of her Dec 1910 marriage would put her birth date in 1887, as would age 43 in the 1930 Census. The SSDI reports her birth date as Jan 19 1885, while her headstone shows her birth date as Jan 19 1889, also incorrect. A birth date of Jan 1882 was given in the 1900 Census, correctly placing her between older sister Icy Dell (listed as b. Jul 1880) and younger brother John Homer (b. Nov 1883). An analysis of the 1900 Census data for that household leads to the conclusion that Nancy and siblings Elizabeth, Icy & Homer seem to have shifted their birthdates in later years to make themselves appear a few years younger than they were. In Nancy's case, the shift seems to have occurred at about the time of the 1910 Census (when she was listed as being only 4 years older than in the 1900 Census), as her given age stayed fairly consistent after that. In the end, although we list her birth date as January 1884 to conform with her official birth record, the likelihood is that she was actually born in January 1882 as indicated in the 1900 Census.

| Notes |
- 1920 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (West Union District), enumerated on Jan 3 1920 at 111 Wabash Avenue:
A. A. Brown, 38, b. Minnesota, both parents b. Minnesota [sic], occupation truck-dray driver; wife Babe Brown, 33; step-dau Clella Haught, 15; dau Jaunita Brown, 8; son Vernon A. Brown, 2 months.
NOTE: The stated birthplace of Addison's parents is clearly in error.
1930 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (West Union District), enumerated on Apr 14 1930 (location appears to be one of several households at 317 E. Main St.):
Addison A. Brown, 47, b. Minnesota, both parents b. Minnesota [sic], occupation salesman at feed store, age 26 at first marriage; wife Babe, 43, age 22 at first marriage, b. WV, father b. Pa., mother b. WV; dau Mabel W, 18; son Vernon A, 10; son Armond L, 7.
NOTE: Again, the stated birthplace of Addison's parents is in error. Daughter Mabel W. Brown was better known as Waneta Brown; with her name appearing as Juanita Brown, she had been enumerated a week earlier in Harrison County in the household of her half-sister and brother-in-law Clella and Lawrence Ingram.
1940 Census, Doddridge Co, WV (Town of West Union), enumerated on Apr 29 1940 at 304 Cottage Ave:
