Individual Details

Lillie Jane Comstock

(Nov 1874 - 8 Jun 1945)



Lillie's birth date on her death certificate was given as 2 Nov 1874. Her twin William's birth on his death certificate was 9 Nov 1874. Obviously one of these, maybe both, is wrong. They were five months old when the census was taken in Kansas in 1875.

Lillie married Fletcher William Stratton, son of Henry Stratton and Susan Jane Boyce, 5 Aug 1893 in Lexington, Lafayette Co MO.
