Notes for Miranda Warren
The 1853 births report to the state auditor lists Maranda Warren, born alive in Bath Co. Ky, father William Warren, mother’s maiden name Mary Barber. (The date column is blank.)

Her death certificate records Miranda McNespy, age 86 years 1 month 26 days, born in Kentucky, birthdate blank, died 14 Dec 1940 in Salt Lick, Bath Co., Ky, widowed, father William Warren, mother’s maiden name Mary Barber, both born in Kentucky, cause of death bronchial pneumonia, informant Mrs. John Craig, Salt Lick, Ky, burial in Barnes Cemetery.

The reported age at death would imply a birthdate of 19 Oct 1854, but since her birth was reported in 1853 the age must be off by a year.
Census Notes for Hugh & Miranda (Family)
1900 census of Bath Co., Ky, Owingsville precinct, enumerated 4 June, lists on p. 3B as family #59:
Lowrey, Hugh, 65, b. May 1835, Ky Va Ky, farmer; Maranda, wife, 46, b. Oct 1853, Ky Ky Ky, married 27 years, mother of 2 children, 2 living; Mattie, dau, 17, b. Sep 1882, Ky Ky Ky; Cragg, Lillie, granddau, 10, b. Aug 1889, Ky Ky Ky.

The preceding household is the family of John Craig and Lena Lowry. Lena is listed as the mother of two children, 1 living, but it is probable that Lillie is their daughter, and the census taker incorrectly recorded the number of children living as 1 because only one of them was in the household.

1910 census of Bath Co., Ky, district 4, Salt Lick, enumerated 18 April, lists on p. 5B as family #126/133:
