John B. Page, Jr. lived in Meshack, Monroe County, Kentucky. The 1890 census was destroyed by fire. The abbreviated census, Soundex System, also contained some errors in 1880. It listed Sarah J. Murley Page as (J.S.) and showed her age as (47). She was really 27 in 1880. This error was caused by a bad figure on the census. The 1870 census showed a 17 year old Sarah J. Murley, living a few farms away from the Page family. The 1900 census shows her as Sallie J. (age 47). Sarah was apparently called Sallie. This made some confirmations pretty difficult. Other facts are: Leslie and Wesley are known to be half brothers of William W. Page, who was born in 1883.
