    [end quote]

    Her tombstone has a birthdate of May 31, 1851, which was off by three years. She was 2 years older than husband Joseph, not one year younger.

    She came to America way before 1877, as she was married in 1872.

    Parents were Albert and Antonia Lamusga, not Anton Lamusga.

    Mrs. Nick Bartosh is daughter Sophia.

    See Joseph's notes for Todd County birth records for her children.
