Classification: Query
As a follow-up to the data supplied to my query request [and as a lesson in accepting all things as fact] here are two instances of the data's being incorrect in the cited book:

* E J Rhoton's Date of Birth is wrong, either from transcription or from reading of the tombstone or from poor information at his death. He was 15 in the 1850 census, and his age was consistent through all the census data from 1850 to 1910. It is not known if the month and day data are correct.

** Mary E Holland Rhoton's date of death is incorrect, as she was alive and living with Elisha in Marion County in the 1880 census. This seems to be a matter of transposing numbers; her year of death was 1897, not 1879.
