A transcript of the gravestone reads, in part: John/ died/ 9th Jan. 1867/ aged 3 weeks 4 d's.. This information suggests that John was born on December 15, 1866, a date that comes a month and a half after the death of his mother. An examination of the eroded gravestone reveals that the year of death may be 1863 rather than 1867. The dates shown above are based on an 1863 death, since it is more plausible than 1867.
