Suggested edit: Thank you as always for this memorial for Mr. Billups. I looked at the inscription on the stone, and the dates reported in Autry's book (edited by Dowd & Co.) are incorrect. Correct dates are Nov. 23, 1823 to Jan. 13, 1883. Obituary appeared in the local newspaper on Jan. 14, 1883, also the day he was buried at Linwood, according to the sexton record. Thanks again. PB
