Here is the record. I came across a listing of cemeteries on Family Search, in Jefferson County, WI, compiled by the Jefferson County Genealogical Society in conjunction with the Jefferson chapter of D.A.R. This list was compiled sometime around 1950. On the list for Muro Cemetery: James R. Dye, d: May 2, 18(65?) AGE: 72 Yrs, 9 Mos, 9 days.
Added Note: If this death date of May 2, 1865 is truly accurate, than his actual b/d would be July 23, 1792.
