Notes

  • Lillie May's birth record reports her birth as 23 September 1886 in Spencer County, Indiana.  The 1910 census in Warrick County, Indiana, recorded in April before her November marriage, which reported her as age 23, matching birth in 1886.  This also matches the census of 1900, which gives the birth date as September 1886.

    On the marriage license, however, her age is given as 26, which is 3 years greater than her reported age  7 months earlier.  Her age was either mis-transcribed, she gave the wrong age, or for some other reason the wrong age was written down by a clerk.

    I have found no record of Lillie's parents other than their names on her birth record.  In 1900, Lillie is 13, in Spencer County, Indiana, the county of her birth.  She is working as a servant in a private home of an elderly couple named Powers.  In 1910, she is in Warrick County, Indiana, again working as a servant in a private house.  She is reported as age 23, and serving in the large household of Uriah and Elizabeth Byers with their widowed son and his three children.
