Thanks Janice.

Named for Alzada's father (John Chastain) and Thomas Jefferson's father (Gordon Devore) respectively.

He is listed as Alzada's SIXTH child in Missouri Birth Records.
She had
3 children with John Berry who died 1875,
then Ervin who was raised as a Berry,
then a mystery child (or before Ervin?)
then this John (her 6th child) and 3 more Devores.

Click on the image to enlarge to see that the middle inital has a little "foot" on it. That's the way some G's looked on headstones back then.
