Mary Ann Darner ^{1 2}

  Baptism Notes:

Christened at the New Hope Evangelical Lutheran Church. Church records show the parents as Andrew and Hannah Darner. The sponsors were George Bauer and wife Catherine.
--------------------------------------------

  Death Notes:

According to information from Mary Kiddo's book Mary Ann died at age 21. (per Dannell Hopkins, http://www.geocities.com/danni_74932/)

The age of 21 is taken from the Church Cemetery records which also indicate that the burial was in August 1847. If true, then her correct year of birth should be 1826 instead of 1813. But her Christening date of 21 Jul 1813 seems to overrule any possibility of the above Church Cemetery Burial Records being correct. If she were born in 1813 as indicated by the Christening record and then died in August 1847, then her age should have been about 34 years old instead of 21.

Consequently, the Church records are wrong. Either the Christening date is wrong, the burial date is wrong, or her age at death is wrong.

Logically it would seem that the Church Burial Records are not accurate. If one were to accept the Church Burial Records about her being only 21 years old at time of death in 1847, that would mean that she was born about 1826. There is documented evidence that she was married in 1833 which would mean that she would have been only about 7 years old when married in 1833 !!
