The old 1930's WPA Survey had Adam as aged 7 years which could not be possible since he didn't show up in the 1870 Census. His age was most likely 1 year, which would fit perfectly between his other siblings in their order of birth. It would be very easy to mistake a 7 for a 1. When I transcribed this cemetery in 1998 the headstone was badly worn.
