It is difficult to determine her birth date because of the many variations found in the census records and elsewhere. If she were born in July as the 1900 census states then she would be a year older than the census records give because they were all taken before her birthday. With this in mind both the 1850 and 1860 would make her birth year as 1834. The 1870 census would make her birth year 1831 but the family was still in Germany and she could not have been born in Maryland. The 1900 census gives her birth as 1838 and her death record gives her age as 68 which would imply she was born in 1836 because she died in February. If she were 68 years and 9 days when she died then her birth date would be the 13th of the month of her birth.
