According to a copy of the Bible record for Wm. C. and Rosannah (Dryden) Rayburn and their children, which is in the Civil War pension file of their son John Giles Rayburn, Rosannah was born 20 Aug 1803.

I've reviewed the very difficult to read WPA document from which the transcription was made and have corrected the year of birth to what I also read as 1803. The day of birth on the document does say 26. I also changed the death year to 1860 per the WPA document.

I've just received a copy of Rosannah Rayburn's obituary from the Poweshiek County Historical and Genealogical Society. The obituary appeared in the MONTEZUMA REPUBLICAN on 16 Mar 1880 and reads as follows: "Rosa Rayburn, wife of Wm. Rayburn, of Lynnville, died at her home in that place, on Saturday, March 6th, 1880, aged 76 years, 6 months and a few days."

The obituary continues: "The remains were brought to Montezuma last Sunday and interred in the new cemetery." Do you require any additional proof that Rosannah died in 1880, not 1860?
