There is a division of authority on Anna's Birth year. It seems pretty clear that January 20th is the correct month and day despite a number of listings in ancrestry sugggesting January 1. However the year is more in doubt. In support of the 1875 year, her death certificate clearly says January 20, 1875. It's a legal document which gives it some credibility. Secondly, the headline on her Obituary gives her age as 82. Thirdly even
though the Ancestry computer extract says 1876 for a birth year for its summary of the Obituary, the actual text of the Obituary clearly says 1875. Also it is clear that she was married Nov 13, 1894, and gave her age at 19. The tombstone says 1876, as does most other data on Ancestry.com.
