However, his death record states birth date as Oct 4 1845, while his headstone shows it as Oct 12 1844. There is also a conflict with his date of death, with the death record stating Feb 14 1922, while he headstone has Feb 22 1922. Note (2) Birth date given in 1900 Census as Nov 1868, but age 75y 8m 25d given at time of death would put it at Oct 18 1867. www.doddridgecountyroots.com Name Index
