My Great Great Grandfather

William Henry M. Dingman, lived his entire life in Canajoharie, Montgomery Co., New York. William, who also went by Henry, died of stomach cancer. He was the son of William A. and Mariah/Maria Vrooman Dingman.

Also not known at this time what name the initial M stood for.

There are three smaller tombstones nearby under a large flowering bush with the names mother, father, Nathan on them; I was unable to crawl under the bush to take their pictures.
