For me, US census-given ages are thoroughly unreliable. I have a great grand aunt, for example, who on several census forms gave ages that put her birth somewhere between 1840 and 1850. (I split that difference for my tree and made her birth 1845.) I've also seen cases where on a census a woman gives a birth year making her almost 60, and then adds that she gave birth the year previous!Johnny Cure-dentshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15762795382889962687noreply@blogger.com
