*Cemetery transcripts give varying ages for Susannah: 68 yrs 9 mos 20 days making her birthdate 14 Jun 18136 and 65 yrs 4 mos 20 days making her birthdate 14 Nov 18165. I believe it reads 59 yrs 9 mos 20 days making her birthdate 4 Jun 1822. All census records and her death registration agree with 1822 as her year of birth.
