Oakwood Cemetery records show that Charles shares a plot with his mother, Julia Fertile in section 1 Lot 119. Cemetery records have conflicting information stating that he died on Feb. 14, 1866 AND that he was interred on Feb. 14, 1866, which would not have been physically possible. His father is listed as both Lewis/Louis so Charles' middle name could be interchanged.
