    • The marriage entry in the source cited is: "6870. Married 25 Apr 1859, William SIMPSON, AND, Diadamy KNIFFIN, born 25 Nov 1840, daughter of Andrew and Mercy (WHITMAN) KNIFFIN". However, since both dates are impossible, my best guess is that 25 Nov 1840 is actually the date of marriage, which fits other known facts about this couple.
