Research Notes

• Conflict with the date of birth: 1870 census records him in birth order as 9/12 with Sep noted in (Sep 1869). By the 1880 census, he is recorded as 19 years of age and he maintains this age. The findagrave also records him being born in 1860 as that is what is on his headstone as well.
