  2. Vincent Spurlock[4][5]
  3. Wilburn Spurlock[6][7]

Research Notes

Birthdate

  • She is listed as 1 month old in the 1850 Census enumerated on August 4, 1850.[1]
  • Her birth date is listed as June 1853 in the 1900 Census[10]
  • Am currently using June 1850 as the birth month and year. If she was born in late mid to late June this would agree with the age of 1 month old in early August. It is likely the month listed in the 1900 Census in correct even though the year is not correct.
