Research Notes (Conflicts/Spelling/Followup)

CONFLICTS

Birth Date: This database uses 7 May 1842. The 1880 U.S. Census gives an age of (37), which, when applied to the official census date of 1 Jun 1880, gives a birth date range from 2 Jun 1842 to 1 Jun 1843. [census-us-1880-ps-in-owen-248-2]

Birth Date: This database uses 7 May 1842. The 1900 U.S. Census gives an explicit birth date (May 1841) and an age (58). When applied to the official census date of 1 Jun 1900, the age gives a birth date range of 2 Jun 1841 to 1 Jun 1842, so the record is internally inconsistent. However, the date range computed from the age is consistent with the database value.

SPELLING

First Name: This database uses Daniel. A family register entry uses the spelling Danial. [family-bible-register-joseph-and-sarah-spear]

FOLLOWUP

Daniel may have been born in Belmont County, Ohio. [research-a-spear-family-history]

In 1862 Daniel enlisted in Company A of the 59th Indiana Infantry along with three cousins. [research-a-spear-family-history]

I don't have any records on when he was on furlough, but a brief summary of the engagements of Company A include the Battle of Corinth [3-4 Oct 1862], the Siege of Vickburg [18 May to 4 Jul 1863], and the Savannah Campaign (aka the March to the Sea) [15 Nov 1864 to 22 Dec 1864].

Daniel Spear may have married Catherine Cassida on 13 Feb 1877 in Owen County, Indiana. [research-a-spear-family-history]
