Michael is a bit unusual. His married late in life and both of his
wives were substantially younger than him. And he hasn't been
located in the census of 1860 and 1870. Further, his tombstone gives
his birth year as 1836, which differs markedly from the October 1833
date he gave in the 1900 census. I've found the 1900 census birth
information to be rather reliable, so this mismatch is a bit of a
puzzle. And daughter Winnie is found in the 1880 census having
been born in January of that year, but in 1900 her birth is given as
March of 1881.
