Jordan Zachariah LICETT

Pecan Cemetery
Erath County,
Texas

1849 - Mar. 12, 1939

Note: Jordan's headstone as well as his Death Certificate are ostensibly in error with respect to his year of birth. Those records might otherwise be deemed to be authoritative, particularly seeing that they are in agreement. However, since Jordan was one year old as of June 1, 1850, the 1850 census alone is sufficient to prove that he was not born in 1854. That is mathematically impossible. Consequently, the most likely year of birth for Jordan is 1849.

In addition, there is also a slight discrepancy in the Death Certificate with respect to the day of the month on which Jordon was born. That document indicates that he was 84 years, 10 months and 14 days old when he died, which would result in a date of birth of April 28th rather than April 26th. The best guess, therefore, with respect to his full date of birth is April 26/28, 1849.
