And in 1900 she was reported as 20 years old, which would match birth in about 1779, making her only about 1 year old or less in 1880! An additional error is introduced, apparently by the poor math of the enumerator, by reporting her birth year as 1889, equivalent to only 10 or 11 years old! 1900 Federal Census, Pickens County, Georgia, 6 June, Town District, Enumeration District 113, page 8A-B, Hse #90, Fam #91 Cowart, Martha J Head W F Dec 1838 61 Widow 9 children/8 living NC SC NC Rents Cowart, A Washington W M Sept 1868 31 Single GA GA NC Farmer - page 8B - Cowart, Francis Dau W F Mch 1877 23 Single GA GA NC Cowart, Susanna Dau W M Oct 1889 [1879] 20 Single GA GA NC Cowart, Birdie Granddau W M Mch 1893 7 Single GA GA GA Cowart, Leander Grandson W M May 1884 16 Single GA GA GA At School

--------------------- Thomas Olen "Tom" Cowart, Sr Birth 1886 Death 1972 Sent to me by Netha Dunlapom 11-30-2015, which was taken from abstract of the minutes books of Corrinth P B Church. Whitfield County Dalton, Georgia August 5, 1972 Having been appointed by Corrinth Primitive Baptist Church to write a memorial to our beloved Brother in Christ, Elder T. O. Cowart, Sr., who passed away June 20, 1972, we wish to submit the following: Elder Cowart united with the Primitive Baptist Church of Christ in the year 1918, along with his wife Amy Brannon Cowart. He was ordained as a minister in February, 1935. He remained a faithful member and Elder until his death. Elder Cowart was married to Amy Brannon Cowart in January, 1907 and to this union was born 10 children. Brother Cowart was born October, 1886 and died at the age of 85, June 20, 1972. Those of us who remain are witnesses that Elder Cowart fought the Good Fight of Faith, first Timothy 6-12. We feel the family, church, and friends have suffered loss but it is his gain. “For to me to live is Christ and to die is gainâ€, Phillipiams 1-21.
