--Her obit gives her age as 59 yrs. old, which calculates her birth year to be 1883, since she died two months prior to her birthday.
--In the 1940 Phillipsburg NJ, Warren Co. census taken on April 9, 1940, her age was given as 56, being prior to her birthday, would indicate a birth year of 1883.
--In the 1910 Phillipsburg NJ, Warren Co. census taken April 23, 1910, her age was given as 33, being prior to her birthday, would indicate a birth year of 1876.
--In the 1880 Easton PA, Northampton Co. census taken June 7, 1880, her age was given as one. Which means she would've been turning two in July, which actually puts her birth year closer to the year given in her marriage record.
--I've concluded to list her year of birth as 1878, since her marriage record gives the year 1878, it also stated that she needed her father's consent because she was a minor. She would've been 20 and still would have needed parental consent, since the legal age was 21.
