His parents and one of his son's are buried there also.. Chet Roberts In a message dated 11/26/2010 1:11:19 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, ttg-inc@tx.rr.com writes: Dear Cuz's, Help me out here... I need help with the birth & death dates of James B. Wynn, who was married to Matilda [Matilda Dwinley] Steel I have his birth as July 23, 1804 East Nantmeal, Chester Cty., PA and I have his death date as May 31, 1861, East Nantmeal, Chester Cty., PA. Buried at St. Mary's Episcopal Church Cemetery, Warwick, Chester Cty., PA Ok... in sources I have: 1850 US Census Roberson Twp., Berks Cty., PA showing him as James Winn 43 M PA Matilda Winn 39 F PA 1860 US Census Roberson Twp., Berks Cty., PA James B. Wynn 55 M 2800/471 PA 1805 Matilda Wynn 49 F PA 1811 Chester County PA Archives Obituaries VR 5.28.1861 In Berks County of Consumption on the 19th lost Mr. James Wynn, aged 56 years 10 months and 8 days Dearest Uncle thou hast left us for a world of heavenly bliss Where pain and sorrow cannot enter and the weary are at rest. Have picture of his tombstone at St. Mary's and it says: James Wynn Died May 31, 1861 Age 57 Years Ok tombstone says death: May 31, 1861 But his obit says he died of Consumption on the 19th and gives age as 56 yrs 10 mo 8 days. if we use the FTmaker calculator it says: if his death date was May 31, 1861 his birth date would be Jul 23, 1804 BUT why does the Obit say he died on the 19th???? That is a long way from a typo of the 31st..... AND.. the 1850 census puts his birth to be 1807 and the 1860 census puts his birth at 1805..... Anyone have any more "Sources" that helps in this???
