The genealogically useful part is that it gives the death dates of Bazzle and Frances, and it confirms that Elza is male because it mentions his wife.

11. The Carrico/Carico Connection by Pamela A. Carico, citing the next source. Gives birth date of 11 May 1795 (probably based on a tombstone), which does not agree with his age in the census.
