Genevieve,
Thank you for getting back with me.I'm very excited that you discovered that Lizzie was Elizabeth Holliday.I think we both suspected as much.You mentioned her as Elizabeth A.In census records she is listed as Lizzie B.?Census takers were notorious for errors, so I will list her as "A."Is this from her death records?
My information on Gertrude came from her Social Security records, which are also sometimes inaccurate on birth dates.You say James Curtis Coe and Elizabeth Holliday were married in 1900?Perhaps Gertrude was then born in 1900?Her brother Leland was born in 1910. Both are listed in census records.
I think the 1899 birth year for Gertrude is correct, however.Below is the family listing in the 1900 Oswego County census, which was taken June 4, 1900:
James C Coe 20
Lizzie Coe 19
Gertrude Coe 8.12
Do you have a death date for James Curtis Coe? Or he and Elizabeth's marriage date?
Thank You,
Carl Robert Coe
