The name given on her death certificate is Isabella, rather than Elizabeth Della; however, the US Census of 1880 lists her as Elizabeth (age 1) and the US Census of 1900 lists her in two different places as Della. One of those, she is listed as Della Rabon in the household of her father with a May 1878 date of birth. On the other, she is listed as Della Bryant in the household of her husband with a November 1877 date of birth. In both places on the 1900 Census, her age is listed as 22.

Her death certificate does not provide a date of birth, but her age is noted as 67. If that age were accurate, it would put her birth about 1874 (too early, per any of the Census records referenced). Though it is impossible to determine her date of birth conclusively based on the information known to me, I believe her to have born between late 1877 and early 1879. For these reasons, I have estimated her date of birth as 1878.
