Daughter of Alfred T. Obenchain and Delphine Beckwith.

The above date of birth is an educated guess.

Maie's niece was the informant for her death certificate and provided a birth date of February 2, 1859. Only one census record supports that year of birth and in that year, 1870, the family was counted twice. One 1870 listing showed Maie at age 9, the other at age 11.

1860 census - Maie was not listed with the family
1870 census - age 9 and age 11
1880 census - age 19
1900 census - age 37, born Feb 1862
1910 census - age 43
1920 census - age 52
1930 census - age 65

Julius' surname is spelled Schonfield on his marriage record and death certificate; Schonfeld in census records. Schonfeld is the spelling on Maie's death certificate.

Chances are Maie bought the tombstone, since Julius preceded her in death, so it may well read Schonfeld.
