Minor discrepancy between this record and the records I received from Gary Wilson in a personal communication that was sent out in 1992. Those records have Eliza Chen Gordon Wilson, born Oct 30, 1905, who married John Leroy Davies. I don't know which birth year or spelling of the name is correct.

I will update the information based on what I have then look at it. The dates are from the headstone, but I just noted that the death date is wrong by that. Will add all the sources I have. I adopted this profile in 2018, but had not work on it much. She is the wife of my 4th great uncle on my mom's side.

After entering the data, I think it is pretty clear that she had to be born in 1815 in that on the 1820 census she was less than 10 years old and the rest of the censuses track with the 1815 birth year.
