      1 _FA1
      2 DATE 22 JUN 1954
      2 PLAC Burial in Wilmore Cemetery, Wilmore, Kentucky

      I believe that the date of birth on the death certificate is not correct. If Delina was born during the month of October, then the 1880 census places her date of birth at 1870 and the 1920 census confirms this date.

      The Death Certificate was filled out by her granddaughter and much of the information is marginal. For example, the mother's name was listed as Regina Warren but should have been Angeline Warner.
