(17) Grave marker (year only) Event Notes Note (1) Birth date on headstone is 1870. Although his death record states birthplace as Ritchie County, his marriage record in Ritchie County shows birthplace as Doddridge County. In this case, the marriage record is considered to be more reliable, as the information was provided by himself. Note (2) Death record states burial location as Ritchie County. But his headstone, shared with his wife, is located at Freeman Cemetery on Piggin Run in West Union. Note (3) Birth date on headstone is 1876. Note (4) Age at death given in obituary, 32 years 14 days, would put birth at Feb 18 1902, but researcher Walter A. Dotson reports her birthdate as Feb 9 1902.
