    Suffix Sr. 
    Birth 22 Mar 1847  Washington County, Indiana Find all individuals with events at this location  [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
    • 1910 Census says he was born in 1849
      1900 Census says he was born in March 1848

      Note: Joy Upton's pedigree chart shows his birth year as 1831. This would have made Levi approximately 112 years old at his death. Until proven wrong, I believe that this may be a typographical error, and will accept his birth date as 1851 as indicated by other researchers.
