Regarding her date of birth: She is not listed with the family in the 1850 census. She is in the 1860 census with age 8. In the 1870 census she is listed as age 21. Her death certificate says her date of birth is Jan 22, 1849. And her grave stone also states a birth year of 1849. But since she is not listed with her family in the 1850 census I think you can assume that she was born after that time.
