The ship's manifest upon arrival on 25 Sep 1840 lists her age as 58. The US census on 18 Jun 1860 lists her age as 78. The abstract from Find-a-Grave states she was 81 on her death on 8 Mar 1860. A picture of her gravestone from Find-a-Grave is inscribed with death date of 8 Mar 1860. The census and the ship's manifest are consistent with a birth date in 1782 before June 18. The death date inscribed on the grave marker is not consistent with the 1860 census date. The names on the grave marker-Helen Neefe with Friest also--suggest this is the proper grave but the wrong date. The place of birth is not documented yet. She emigrated from Roda (todays Stadtroda, most likely) in Sachsen-Altenburg. It cannot be excluded that she was born in Prussian Saxony (Sachsen-Anhalt), but Sachsen-Altenburg is more likely Less Last Changed: March 20, 2016 by Neefe Christening Add Death • 1 Source • Edit Edit Death 8 March 1860 Gotham, Richland, Wisconsin, United States Reason This Information Is Correct: Findagrave Last Changed: July 29, 2016 by Roger Lee Bates Burial • 1 Source • Edit Edit Burial 1860 Ash Creek Cemetery, Richland, Wisconsin, United States Last Changed: December 27, 2017 by Roger Lee Bates Birth Name Helena Friest Last Changed: July 19, 2012 by FamilySearch Residence • Edit Edit Residence 1850 Collinsville, Madison, Illinois, United States Last Changed: July 29, 2016 by Roger Lee Bates Residence • Edit Edit Residence June 1860 Richmond, Richland, Wisconsin, United States Last Changed: December 27, 2017 by Roger Lee Bates Family Members Spouses and Children Johann Christian Friedrich Neefe 1776-1821 • L2LS-QJN??
