Notes
- The date of birth in the 1900 census is October 1895. which conflicts wiht the date on her gravestione of 2 March 1892. the 1910 census matches the date given in 1900. The age in 1920 and 1940 matches the gravestone date. Social Security records repoort it as 2 March 1894.

The gravestone for Carrie and Lee Criswell did not have Carrie's date of death when we photographed it in July 2003. Perhaps she was buried somewhere else. She is listed in the Essex Funeral Home Registry that goes from 14 February 1978 to 25 February 1981.
The Social Security Death Index reports her death as June 1978. The SSDI reports she was born 2 Mar 1894, but this is a different date than that on her gravestone, which says 2 Mar 1892.
