Notes for Amanda Jane Dehart
Her death certificate records Amanda Jane Caskey, age 74 years 3 months 3 days, born 18 Aug 1870 in Elliot Co., Ky, died 21 Nov 1944 in Pomp, Morgan Co., Ky, married, wife of Jessie J. Caskey, age 78, father Joyce Dehart, mother’s maiden name Caroline Ellington, both born in Elliot Co., Ky, cause of death cerebral hemorrhage due to hypertensive heart disease, informant Lorene Caskey, Pomp, Ky, burial in Pomp, Ky.

The reported birth place is probably incorrect; her parents were recorded in the 1870 census in Christy Creek precinct of Rowan Co. in June 1870, just two months before she was reportedly born. It is somewhat unlikely they would move that summer when Elizabeth was nearly due and when crops would be in the ground. The only way I can see her being born in Elliott Co would be if her mother was visiting relatives, or if the reported year of birth is wrong and she was really born in 1871.
