Notes for Ola “Ollie” Brown
Her death certificate states Ollie Brown Caudill, age 49 years 9 months 20 days, born in Elliott Co. (birthdate field blank), died 23 Apr 1937 in Morehead, Rowan Co., Ky, married, wife of Neal Caudill, father Judge French Brown, mother’s maiden name Nerve Clark, cause of death pulmonary tuberculosis, informant Neal Caudill, Bluestone, burial in Poston Cemetery.
The recorded age at death would imply a birthdate of 3 July 1887, but the 1900 census listed her as born Aug 1884 (with her brother Wheeler born in Dec 1887), and the marriage license listed her as age 19 in Aug 1908, implying a birthdate in 1888 or 1889.
The survey by the Rowan Co. Historical Society lists no Caudill graves in Poston Cemetery (nor does it list Ollie and Cornelius elsewhere), but it does list 49 unmarked graves or blank stones in Poston Cemetery.
