Fannie is listed in the 1900 Census with a birth date of Jul 1889,[1] but there is a Find-a-Grave memorial for her with the same birth date, and a date of death listed as 10 Feb 1890, making her only 6 months old.[2] I'm going to remove her date of death, since she was clearly living in 1900, and I sent a suggestion to the Find-a-Grave memorial manager.
