Birth & Death dates came from the diary Margaret Teresa Jane "Janie" (Davenport) Hice kept while her children were sick & dying in the summer & fall of 1893.

"Annie was 13 years old, May 18, was taken sick August 3rd and died Aug. 7th She told her little brother before she got sick that she would be buried by the side of him in a few days after he was buried. She told the rest of the children if her little brother died she did not want to live to know that he was dead, and while he was dying he would call her and she would call him. After he died she never spoke any more, and did not know when he died, but lay with hands up and eyes looking upward smiling until she died and would reach like she was taking some one in her arms and Would almost laugh out and seem to be in view of great joy."
