Not sure where these boys died, as Iowa was not open for settlement in 1810 at the time of their deaths. Not sure how they're related to each other, perhaps cousins or family friends; both boys died the same day, June 11, 1810, so perhaps they died in an accident together? The parents must have brought the headstone with them when they were in Iowa. Truly a mystery.....
