Notes: Endnotes and Sources [10] to [19]: |

[10]. |
1850 census, Samuel McAninch household, Franklin Township., Hendricks County; |
|
|
National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) microfilm M432 Roll 150 pg.19(A). |
|
[11]. |
Samuel McAninch’s birth place: state “Pennsylvania” written in full, 1850 census [Note 10]. |
|
[12]. |
Samuel McAninch’s date of birth: Samuel “Died 30 July 1859, Aged 70 yrs 5 mo & 25 ds” |
|
|
(cemetery records, this report) [1] [2] [photo, 4a5] [letter, 4b]; so, “born ca. 5 July 1789”. |
|
[12a] |
All sources report the same date, “30 July 1859”, and the same age (70 years, 5 months, |
|
|
and 25 days) from the marker stone [1] [2] [3a1] [3b] [photo, 4a5] [letter, 4b], and, |
|
|
the digits “70” can be read in the photograph [photo, 4a5] (clearly “70”, not “76”). |
|
[12b] |
Multiple date-of-birth calculations are possible: Samuel died in July; 1859; there are |
|
|
31 days in July, so, ‘minus 25 days’ could be 5 or 6 Feb. 1789, or, with only 28 days |
|
|
in Feb. 1789, could be as early as 3 Feb.? |
|
[12c] |
Samuel is age 60 in the 1850 census [10], which corroborates the “ca. 1789” calculation. |
|
[12d] |
There is an incorrect date-of-birth “(born 2-5-1783)” typed on both the |
|
|
‘Phillips Estate’ list [1] and on Mrs. Ennis Johnson’s list [2]. |
|
[12e] |
However, working backwards from “Died 30 July 1859” and “Aged 70 yrs 5 mo & 25 ds”, |
|
|
this “(born 2-5-1783)” calculation is wrong [1] [2]; instead, correct subtraction math would |
|
|
indicate “born 2-5-1789” (1789, not 1783). |
|
[12f] |
The incorrect year (1783) appears to be the result of a math error, the subtraction of |
|
|
76 years, instead of 70 years. This must have been a 20th-century calculation error, |
|
|
since the date of birth is not written on the actual stone marker in the cemetery [photo, 4a5]. |
|
|
It is not known whether the mistake was first made on the ‘Phillips Estate’ list [1], and then |
|
|
copied onto Mrs. Johnson’s list [2], or vice versa. |
