  6.   There are discrepancies concerning her date of birth. The 1900 and 1910 U.S. Census upon which she appears indicate her date of birth as March 1897, her grave marker indicates 1899 and Wikipedia (among others) indicates 19 March 1894. All of the above have been known to be wrong, but of these the census records are the only documents written while she was alive.
