Notes for John Blevins
He was recorded in the 1900 census as age 3, born Aug 1897 (which is inconsistent if taken literally, but Aug 1896 would be too close to the birthdate of his sister Stella), and as age 12 in 1910.
His WW I draft registration card, filed 12 Sep 1918, records John Blevins, age 20, born 2 Aug 1898, farmer, nearest relative Wesley Blevins, Preston, Ky.
Since his sister Lela was born May 1899, Aug 1898 is too close to her. What works for the child spacing is the Aug 1897 date given in the 1900 census.
