Numerous records indicate that Theodor's birth date is 1858. As his mother is reportedly born in 1840, it is likely that the records are correct. The stone clearly indicates 1850, and it is FindaGrave's suggestion that the stone date is the end of the discussion, so the records will remain as born 1850.
