Saphronia's gravestone shows a birthdate of 1874. This does not seem to be correct as she is listed with her family in the 1870 US Census as age 2, which would make her birth year about 1868.

J.M. Dowlearn (Age 39) - Farmer & Stock raiser, Jane (38) Keeps House; Mary E. (19); Patrick H (16)-Farm hand, Josephine (14), William (12), Rufus (11), Alfred (9), Jeff (7), Susan L. (5), Dora (3), Sephrona (2). All show born in Texas except for wife Jane, born in Alabama.
