  4. 4.0 4.1 4.2 There are three different birthdates given, each generated from a different source, and none agreeing nor offering much reason to favor one over the others. The recorded birth should be the most reliable, but seems like the most unreasonable because it makes her too young and too close to the next child. The Doty Genealogy seems reasonable but is in the fall, while the age at death calculates to a date in the spring. Of the two, age at death would be more credible than a date from a secondary source, though it appears Doty may have corresponded with family members.
