Research Notes

The publication Your ancestors: a national magazine of genealogy and family history, Volumes 1-2 identified Christina's birth date as 20 Oct 1807 without citing any sources.[5] Her Find-A-Grave web page also doesn't cite any sources. It identifies her birth month/year as Dec 1807, although the description there identifies her age as 58 years, 7 months, 28 days.[6] The Cutter Cemetery web page at the Tompkins County NYGenWeb site also has that same age listed in the cemetery record transcriptions there, but without citing a specific cemetery record source.[1] The selected birth date of 21 Oct 1807 was calculated from Christina's death date of 18 Jun 1866 and the transcription age.
