Clearly the birth date of either Hiram (Feb 1851) or Eliza (Aug 1851) is incorrect, but there are insufficient primary records to determine which is wrong. It seems likely that Eliza's birth date should be Aug 1852, given the marriage date of their parents and the fact that if born Aug 1852, she would have been almost 8 at the time the 1860 census was taken (Jul 1860).
