A descendant's report states that she was born on August 11th 1870 in Richmond, Wayne County, whilst an uncorroborated IGI record gives the year as 1873 and the birthplace as Cartersburg in Hendricks County.
The US 1880 Census finds her living with her parents in Salt River Township, Ralls County, Missouri. Her age is cited there as 7, tending to confirm a birthyear around 1873.
