Notes

  • The name of this person is shown as Altha in the 1880 census.  Some other Terry research sources or genealogies show the name as Deatha.  I wonder if this is from some inside family source, or from a misreading of the census entry?  Most censuses report her as Altha, which could be the full name, or a short form of Dialtha/Dealtha.  Her grave has Altha, but her death certificate says Althea.
