Reference Notes
Questioning the mother's birth date:
- If she was born in 1781 and married in 1822, then she was 41 years old.
- That means that she would have been 55 years old at the birth of her last child.
- 1841 Census gives her age as 45, which would be incorrect if she was born in 1781. It would be off by 15 years.
