    • Died at age 78

      There are a lot of different dates provided for the birth of Nancy Yeargan. After looking at the 1850 and following census reports it is my opinion that she was born in 1833 or 1834.
      ___________________________________

      There is also a lot of contention on the spelling of her middle initial whether it is an "I" or a "J." I will admit that the handwritten entries in the marriage certificate and census reports look more like a "J" than an "I" to me but I've decided to make the "I" for Isabelle or Isabeller the primary. I will keep the other spellings as alternates to show others that we are not positive on this point
