Slight discrepancy in the dates I have just received from the cemetery transcription - that states he died 9 Oct 1880 but just had a thought - as the American way is to put the month first, if you transpose this date from 9.10.1880 to 10.9.1880 that would agree with the newspaper, wouldn't it!! Definitely the right man! Carole Gardner is going to obtain photos of the graves for me. Many thanks. Janice Hawkins
