Born: 18 MAY 1815^[5] · Henniker, N.H.
Died: 31 MAR 1887^[6] · Hillsborough, N.H.

NOTE: Birth date 18 May 1815 is a derived estimate, computed exactly (31 Mar 1887 minus 71y 10m 13d) from the age at death stated on Eli Heath’s New Hampshire death record (FamilySearch ark 1:1:FS2W-L4X). This falls only about three weeks after his parents’ recorded marriage (27 Apr 1815, Hillsborough NH) — consistent with a premarital conception rather than a recording error, but flagged here because the interval is unusually tight. Needs independent verification: no separate birth or baptismal record for Eli Heath has been located.
