His death certificate records Enic Wills, age 84, born 1883 in North Carolina, died 20 June 1925 in Bath Co., Kentucky, married, father Aron Wills, mother’s maiden name Mary Noris, both born in Ky, cause of death dilated heart, arteriosclerosis & chronic interstitial nephritis, informant Clifford Wills, Salt Lick, Ky, burial in Lower Salt Lick.

The reported age and birthdate are very inconsistent, and 1883 is only ten years before Clifford’s own birthdate. Yet it very clearly says 1883. He must have misunderstood the purpose of that date field. It is right below the marital status field, and Enoch was married in 1881, so perhaps Clifford entered what he thought was their marriage date.
