According to the info i have, Jose Faustino (Joseph Foster) was born
in 1864 or 1865. His sister Maria's age could range from 1866-1868.
The 1920 and 1930 census says she was born in 1868, while the 1900
census states 1867. Her obit and death records says she was born in
1867 approximately. It also states her date of birth was 11/09/1867.
As for Jose Faustino (Joseph Foster), his date of birth is listed as
12/09/1864 on his death record.
