BirthMartha Ellen Colwell was born circa 1849 in Ohio (based on the 1850 census.)3,4,5,6,7,8,9 
Birth*She was born on 9 June 1851 in Ohio.3,4,5,6,8,9,10 
Birth-note Her death record shows her birth as 9 Jun 1851. The gravestone also shows her birth as 1851. However, she appears to be in the 1850 census as age 1, so the 1851 year may be wrong. There are some other discrepancies in the records. In 1850 she is age 1 with James and Lydia Colwell. In 1860 she is age 10 with James and Mary Colwell. Her death record gives her mother's name as Mary Graves. However, I think it is probably Lydia Graves and Mary is James' second wife. 
Marriage LicensePP and Hinton Spires Junior's marriage application was by Harrison Spires.11 
Marriage*Martha Ellen Colwell married Hinton Spires Junior, son of Hinton Spires and Sarah Mc Cumber, on 1 January 1866 at Meigs County, Ohio, by James Petty, J.P..11,1,12,13
