Notes for Jesse Hall
Morgan Co. Ky vital statistics (LDS film 0216835) lists unnamed son b. 25 June 1852 to Jacob Hall & Nancy Brown.
His death certificate states Jessie Hall, age 62 years 2 mos 28 days, died 21 Oct 1914 in Pine Grove precinct, Rowan Co., Ky, born 25 Nov 1852 in Ky, occupation farmer, widowed, father Jacob Hall, mother’s maiden name Brown, both born in Virginia, cause of death pneumonia, informant Emma Hall, Triplett, Ky, burial Pine Grove.
The birthdate agrees with the Nov 1852 birthdate for Jesse as shown in the 1900 census, but is in conflict with the date from the birth record. I tend to take ages and years of birth from death records with a grain of salt, since they are reported by survivors who may have incomplete knowledge, and the 1900 census of Rowan Co is very unreliable, but the fact that the two later records agree on the month gives me pause. The birth record is from an annual report sent to the state auditor, rather than some register made at the time of birth, and sometimes clerks misread the reports from doctors and midwives that they were collating.
So bottom line, I am uncertain as to whether Jesse was born in June or November.
