Stella Almina Smith's birth year on her tombstone reads 1898. Her birth year is 1897 as confirmed by the Lambton, Ontario birth records and the Smith family bible. Stella died from appendicitis two months prior to the death of her father Aaron Samuel Smith. Both Stella and Aaron have incorrect birth years on their tombstones.
Saskatchewan, Death Index, 1889-1916 shows Stella's death date of 17 March 1912. Cemetery Transcripts, 1850-1994 records her burial date of 30 April 1912, apparently the delay of burial was due to weather conditions.
