He may have been born in 1802. The 1850 census, Wood Co., VA, indicates that he was age 48 (b. abt. 1802). Yet the 1860 and 1870 census records for Clay Co., IN, indicate that he was b. abt. 1803. Maybe his birthday was late in the year. The tombstone indicates he was 72 years old when he died.

(His son William REDIFER is also buried in the Billtown Cemetery, Clay Co., IN. Looks like he died in the Civil War.)
