Biography

Research Notes

• There are some discrepancies in her year of birth. Her Christening record gives a mistranscription of her birth date as 13 Nov 1838; however, it gives her Christening date as 7 Jun 1829. I'm going to assume her birth year was 1828. The 1865 Census gives an estimate of 1831^[1], her marriage record gives 1834^[2], and her death record gives 1829.^[3]

• Her death record gives her husband's name as M.V.B. Back^[3]

• Fact: Christening (07 Jun 1829) BRIMFIELD,HAMPDEN,MASSACHUSETTS
