Birth:
DOB discrepancy. Death Certificate has it as 4 Jul 1879 and his tombstone has it as 4 Jul 1875. Also, the note on his grave location has him as the son of Henderson Wingo and Lillie Christian. Henderson died in 1876 and Lillie began living with Henderson's brother Harvey Whitten Wingo, having several children with him. Thomas' death certificate lists "Witten" Wingo as his father. Is there a family dispute as to who is Thomas' real father?
