Julia Amanda Richards ^{1 2 3 4}

  General Notes:

Either her birth date, death date, or the age at death of 22 years 3 months 6 days as given on the gravestone is not correct.

The gravestone is extremely worn and very difficult to read. The photograph as posted on Find A Grave.com makes reading any dates nearly impossible.

When the age at death is calculated from the death date, the result is a birth date of 28 Oct 1844 instead of 27 Dec 1845.

If the birth date of 27 Dec 1845 is used, then the age at death of 22y 3m 6d results in a death date of 2 Apr 1868 instead of 3 Feb 1867.

If the birth date of 27 Dec 1845 and a death date of 3 Feb 1867 is used, then the age at death is calculated as 21y 1m and 7d instead of 22y 3m 6d.
