See the biographical article for her first husband, West Jessup Morgan.

Somewhere in the process of obtaining and calculating her birth date and age at the time of her death, the numbers were confused and transposed. Her birth date, as recorded in the Bates family Bible, was 1864, not 1846. This agrees with the earliest census where she is found with the family, in 1870, Age 6, in Boone Co., Iowa. Therefore her age at death was 68, not 86.
