He is a bit of a mystery to me. I thought the age on the stone showed he was 18 years old when he died. Another researcher believes his age was 48 years.

If he were 18, he would have been the son of Cyrus and Matilda (Sutton) Pollock. If he was 48 when he died in 1850, that presents a bit of a problem. His wife, Matilda, married her second husband, Joseph Sears, before 1846.

Matilda was head of household in the 1840 census and the children were living with her. If she and Cyrus were divorced, why is he buried in her family plot?
