This memorial was originally entered using 1864 for the DOB year on the assumption that the obituary was correct and that the headstone inscription was in error. A review of the death record on May 22, 2017, by this contributor, shows that the correct DOB was Nov. 3, 1869, which would conform to the headstone inscription and census materials. Accordingly, this memorial DOB is being changed to Nov. 3, 1868 a/o May 22, 2017. //rkt ---------------------- "The Fairfield (Ia.)
