I am asking curator expertise regarding two profiles to sort out. This one and Narcissa A Kinne

Both are listed as daughters of Abner and Lydia but there seemed to be a mix up at some point in time. The Narcissa who died at age 17 is listed on find a grave as a daughter of Abner and Lydia but no mention of the other.

Dates of birth and death in other trees have the dates mixed up between the two Narcissa's

Records at DAR https://services.dar.org/Public/DAR_Research/search_descendants/?ac...

Lists date of death as Aug 1821 not 1816 which many other trees have her death date as 1816 which matches up with the other Narcissa.

Thanks for any help or additional records that can be discovered.

I think both records are flawed.

The wife of Robert Kinne was Narcissa Johnston, not Johnson, parents unknown, therefore, birth unknown.

See https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Johnston-11219 more or less matches DAR record. I would however estimate an earlier birth date.


There seems to have been three daughters of Abner Johnson, death dates not known.

So the FindAGrave https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/121656968/narcissa-johnson with dating of 1799-1816 doesn’t make sense. I wonder if dates are being misread on the tombstone.
