Birth date is per 1850 census. Bradenton Libe has a faded microfilm copy; our reading of 15 Sep 1998 makes it look like it could be "Kesia age 13" (i.e. born 1836/37, and maybe "Keziah", rather than age 7, born 1842/43 as previously records, possibly farmed out from James Duffy's nearby house. (Wm R Duffy is on Census Page 152, James and family is on page 155 -- and he has a second wife. Perhaps Keziah did not get along with her stepmother?)
