1850 census
She is called Cassa in her father's will. Someone is IGI has a birthdate of 1 Oct 1804. This actually makes more sense. But, why was she christened on 22 Feb 1823?
1850 census had her as 12, that would put her as 1838. abt 1841 from an unofficial source.
The 1870 census has her as 17 years old??? 1853??? 1850 census had her as 11. Could this be 2 different people??
1850 census has her as 9 years, that would put her birthdate as abt 1841. Somewhere someone had her birthdate as 1835.
I saw her headstone and checked information. She was called Eliza in the 1850 census. Lizzie most of the time. 1900 census had the family in Reading. It said she had 16 children, 10 of which were alive. Hummm. 1910 - it said she had 14 children, 10 who were alive. She was living with Henryand the 2 girls. They were in Reading. She is listed as Lizzie in the 1910 miracode census, where she is listed with Henry, her son. 1920 - she is living in York with her daughter Marie E., granddaughter Mary J (15 years), and Grandson Albert W. Forry (13 years). I have a grant deed that positively connects Elizabeth wife of Tempest W. Graff,as the daughter of Michael Leib. 1878.
Another unofficial source had 1843. 2 census have him at about 1849.
Parents were born in PA. Listed as Mariah Libe when she was married. 1900 she had only 1 child, who was living.
The census has her as 14 during the 1870 census. 1856??? abt 1833 on an unoffical source.
Listed in the 1860 census as Allis.
