Also cites DAR Lineage Books, 120:280 (marriage). Norma further writes: "I believe that ... Willoughby and his brother William are twins rather than brothers born just a year apart. Their ages are the same on the 1848 school attendance list (14), the 1850 census (17), and 1860 census (26), as well as the 1870 census (37). However, the 1900 census states that William was born Feb. 1832, while Willoughby's birthdate is given as Feb. 1833."
