Individual Details
Artemissa Clementine Henson
(5 Sep 1858 - 25 Jan 1928)
Her gravestone claims a birth year of 1855 but that was the year her sister Narcissa was born. I would think her parents knew her age and birth order in 1860.

Notes
Birth
Her grave marked gives a year of birth as 1855 - but that is the same year a sister was born and doesn't agree with the first census when she appears. No doubt her parents knew her age and birth order.
