Biography

The baby of the family of eight. Died of snakebite.

Note: In the 1880 Census she is a member of the household of Phillip BORDAGES, listed as a laborer. Father's pob is NY (which jibes with info already known), mother's POB is given as IN.

Death cert. gives her DOB as 1858 but consensus of other sources is 1860, which also appears on her gravestone. No birth cert found.
