Notes:

Research Notes for Mary A. McLaughlin:

She may be the Anna M. McLaughlin, stenographer, age 30 [sic], boarding in Elkhart Ward 1, Elkhart, Indiana.

Her marriage record says she was born 28 June 1886, but this contradicts her obit in the 14 Oct 1960 edition of the Toledo Blade, which says she was aged 83 when she died.¹ It also contradicts the 1880 census, in which she was 2 years old; the 1920 census, in which she was 42 years old; and the 1930, 1940, and 1950 census records, in which her birth date was 1878 to 1879.

The likely correct birth date is 28 June 1877, corresponding to the birth record for 'unnammed' McLaughlin, born on that date in Shreve, Ohio, daughter of Neal McLaughlin and Louisa Shallecker.²
