*****************
Obituary and Death Certificate says (in 1955) she was born in August 1881. My great grandfather, Leland Gilbert Stanford, ordered their grave marker in 1958. I’ve seen the receipt. It states her birth year was 1883.

Her brother Allen F Driver was born on 2/10/1881 making it impossible for Missouri Jane to be born on 8/23/1881. That’s six months apart.

Her next sister, Mary E Stanford Baucum’s death certificate states she was born 29/1884. Again, if Missouri was born in 1883, that is only six months! So, what year was she (Jennie) born in Arkansas?

Best guess, it was written in a Bible, her birthdate.
