Julia Catherine Howard was born on 28 Feb 1888 in Black Mountain, Harlan County, Kentucky, United States. Julia died on 10 Dec 1970 at the age of 82 in London, Laurel, Kentucky, United States. She was buried at Slate Hill Cemetery in London. The death date on the tombstone in Slate Hill Cemetery is wrong. The children could not afford the headstone at the time of death and the wrong information was provided for her death date.
The birth date on the headstone is also called to question. Her Social Security Death Benefit shows as 29 Feb 1887 however 1887 is not a leap year while 1888 is. Her birthday has always been observed on a leap year as the 29th. All Census data shows 1888 so we have recorded the birth date as 29 Feb 1888 thus there are two errors on the headstone.
Julia Catherine Howard and William Henry Brown were married about 1903 in Kentucky.
