Andrew Cornett believed he was born in 1871. However, his birth record (found by Mary Lou Carr) states that he was born 9 Nov 1870.
In 1900, Anthony Cornett (29) and his wife of two years, Eleanora (27) rented part of a two-family house at 6 Brabec St. in the 13th Ward of Allegheny City, Pennsylvania. The couple had no children. Anthony was employed as a chain maker. He had been unemployed for three months of the previous year.
At the time of the 1910 census, Anthony Cornett (39) and his wife Eleanora (37) lived in a home in Pittsburgh's 24th Ward. The house was owned by her widowed father, Joseph Eberg (62). He and several of Eleanora's siblings also lived in the house. Anthony and Eleanora had no children. Anthony worked as a janitor in a bank.
According to the 1900 census, Eleanora came to America in 1882; the 1910 census says she immigrated in 1883. She was able to read and write.
