The death records indicate that Martin was 8l years 11 months 11 days which calculates the correct birth date shown on the stone, March 11, 1796. Martha's death record indicates she was 83 years 3 months 18 days (which is not what the stone indicates 83y1m18d) The birth date on the stone is Nov 13, 1784 and I believe from the death record it should be Oct 13, 1794. If you would have used the stones calculations her birth would have been Dec 18, 1794, so as you can see, there are many errors.
