Please note Elmira James cemetery stone gives her birth date as July 11, 1828. But her obituary gives her birth date as July 11, 1818. Age 79 years 4 months 14 days.
When using Legacy calendar her birth date does come out as July 11, 1818. The census also gives her birth date closer to 1818 then her cemetery stone year of 1828.
