Life History

Notes

• Note that Eliza's death certificate reported her birth date as 22 Oct 1867, but in the 1870 census she was reported as 1 year old, which would mean she was born in October 1868, not 1867. Or alternatively, her parents reproted her age wrong and she was actually 2 years old in August 1870 (almost 3).
