His death certificate states 8/9/1846. However, he lied to get into the Union army and stated he was born in 1844. I do believe it is 1846. He died in 1931. They had 6 children: Arthur (1881), Frank (1870), Mary (1876, however her obituary states 1877), Nellie (1886), Stella (1891). You can contact me at [email protected]
