I haven’t verified all of the siblings yet so that might not be correct. The further back in time I go the harder it is getting to verify information. Information highlighted in yellow means that I need to verify/do further research.
APR 1837 - Born in Pike County, AL. I don't have any documentation that proves this but according to the 1900 census she was born in APR 1837. Sometimes the enumerator wrote incorrect information so we need other documents to verify this.
