Nancy: No I believe you misread that. I have Nov. 4, 1831 for his birthdate. His deathdate (from Lau's ALWINE FAMILIES) is May 7, 1895, which I mistyped. The obituary, if you're interested, is in the Hanover Evening Herald (May 9, 1895) and in the Sentinel (May 14, 1895) (again from Lau's ALWINE FAMILIES). I hope this helps.
