    CENSUS: 1870 on ancestry.com. Mary Owens, 14; b. in Virginia, living with Clay 26, Annette 19 Owens, and Fanny Anderson 8. location: Platte City, Platte, Missouri. (age should be 1, not 14; see 1880 census, unless this is a different Mary Owens, possible a sister to Henry?)

    Birth:
    1870 census says Mary was 14 in 1870. But this is likely an error. The 1880 census says she was 11, so she was probably born in 1869 and was 1 in 1870.
