  5. [S1768] Fridley, "Washington Co., VA Deaths 1853-1885" online database, <www.Ancestry.com>, J. [sic]N. [sic] Maiden data. This source reports the date as 16 Dec. 1893, however, Mae's granddaughter, in a conversation with Joanna Owens (Oct. 2007) stated that Lettie was very young when her mother died and it was possible Mae never recovered from Lettie's birth in Aug. 1892. Therefore Joanna feels the 26 Jan. 1893 date is more likely than the Dec. 1893 date.
