I see an unlikely timeline here. I can accept that she may have been born when her mother was over 50 (something I've seen with my own family in the region), but that she was then 11 in 1892 and became a board member? The other dates seem accurate, and I've sourced and referenced the other dates and positions I added here, but this needs reviewing, though the help desk may imply unwarranted urgency, it might not otherwise happen for a long time.

- If I'm not mistaken, the year of birth should be 1871, not 1881. I think this is the find-a-grave site. Good Ol’factory (talk) 04:44, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
- According to the references, she first became a board member (assistant secretary) at age 17. - SudoGhost (talk) 04:50, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
- I think the reference says she was the assistant secretary of the "Fourteenth ward association" at age 17—that would be the assistant secretary in a local church congregation (a "ward"), not as a board member of the general association church-wide. That's my reading of it, at least. Good Ol’factory (talk) 08:05, 22 March 2011 (UTC)
