Notes on Leontine's birth date:

This census [http://files.usgwarchives.net/la/lafayette/census/1850/laf1850.txt
1850] seems to say that she was 5 years old in 1850. She married in 1872 which would have her age 27, considered old for a first marriage.
She was born about 1850 according to the US census of 1880 and in 1848 according to the US census of 1910. She had brothers born in 1850 and 1852 so most likely between 1844 and 1848. [1]
