Josie being born in the later months of 1880, does not appear on census records with her parents. Some family members use the birth of April 1881 as appears on the 1900 census record; however, after viewing the family Bible, it matches to what is reported on the death certificate- October 2, 1880, she died January 14, 1962 at age 81.

She married June 13, 1897 in Pulaski County, Indiana to John Henry Lohr. According to the 1910 census, Josie stated she was the mother of EIGHT children, TWO are living. Note - the child Beatrice, found with the family that census year was adopted so only One child was living in 1910, then in 1911 a NINTH child is born to this union.
