Event Notes
Note (1) Headstone states 1866, and age 26 given at time of 1889 marriage would put
birth in about 1863, but death record states that he died Apr 22 1941 at age
76y3m7d, which would put birth at Jan 15 1865.
Note (2) Undated obituary clipping states only that John Eli Hart died "Tuesday
afternoon" at age 76.  Headstone for double grave of John Eli Hart and wife
Salome has her birth & death years (1867-1930), but only his birth year of 1866.
The obituary also stated that his first wife, Salome Cain Hart, had "died ten
years ago."  These discrepancies are clarified by his death record, which states
that he was born on Jan 15 1865 and died on Apr 22 1941 at age 76y 3m 7d.
