From Tennessee Records: Tombstone Inscriptions and Manuscripts, Jeannette Tillotson Acklen, Compiler, 1933:

John H. Binkley, Sept. 16, 1807 - July 24, 1818

Presumably the poor condition of the tombstone led to its being misread.

Gravesite Details

This replacement marker was provided by the Corps of Engineers when this grave was moved from the Frederick Binkley family graveyard to Mt. Juliet Memorial Gardens. Because the stone was so worn, the wrong death year was used.
