Martha John Deshazo

1862 - 1952  (90 years)

• Name	Martha John Deshazo
  Birth	7 Jun 1862	Choctaw, Mississippi, United States   [1]
  	Her death certificate says she was born in 1862, but other sources say 1866 It also calls our Jackson, Mississippi as her birthplace. The family never lived there, to my knowledge. Maybe so.
  Gender	Female
  Census	12 Aug 1870	Choctaw, Mississippi, United States   [2, 3]
  	Listed as 4 years old in 1870, but 18 years old in 1880.
  Census	Jun 1880	Clark Township, Pike, Arkansas, United States   [4]
  	Living next door to Zenas & Nancy Deshazo Tennison Listed as 18 years old. Seems like she is younger than this. The 1880 census says her father was from Alabama and her mother was from Virginia. Nancy says the same thing.
