    This age would indicate a birth year of about 1855.  This matches the dates reported on her gravestone of 1 Mar 1855.

    The 1900 census reports that Henry and Nancy wwere running a dairy farm.  The two older children died before this census.  Their third child, Elizabeth Pearl, is enumerated here for the first time.

    1900 Federal Census, Arkansas County, Arkansas, 19 June, Prairie Township, District 7, Page 13B, Hse #258, Fam #264
    Turner, Henry Head W M  Apr 1850  50  Married 24 yrs MS VA GA Farmer Owns
    Turner, Nancy C Wife W F  Mar 1855  45  Married 24 yrs  NC VA NC Dairy Woman
    Turner, Lizzie P Dau W F  Feb 1897  3  AR MS NC

    Note that this census now reportes Henry's birthplace as Mississippi instead of Arkansas.  Mississipppi seems to be the correct state.

    The daughter listed in 1900 as Lizzie P matches the child in 1910 named Perl (Pearl?).  Their daughter in the 1880 census was named Rubie, matching this pattern.  This seems to indicate that this daughter's name is Elizabeth Pearl.
