Life History

Notes

• 1880 Federal Census, Fannin County, Texas, 14 June, Precinct 2, District 24, page 9 (scan 351), Hse/Fam #79
  Hill, William W M 26 Married Farmer MO TN TN [b abt 1854]
  Hill, Nancy W F 22 Married Wife Keeping House TN MO TN [b abt 1858]
  Hill, Briggs  W M 6 Son Single Cannot read or write TX MO TN [b abt 1874]
  Hill, Naoma  W F 5 mos born Nov [sic] Dau Single TX MO TN [b abt Dec 1879]
  
  Note that in Naoma's record, the age reported does not match the reported month of birth.  If she was 5 months old at census time 1 June 1880, she was born in December some time.  If born in November, as reported, she would have been 6 months old on 31 May 1880.  Her SS and grave report her birth month as October 1879, so going by that, her age in 1880 should have been 7 months.
  
  Though the 1880 census record indicates her given name was Naoma, she reported her name to Social Security as Oma.  This is the name on her grave as well, and in other records.
