*Note 1:  This headstone is partially missing.  The upper-right corner was broken off.  The text in square brackets "[ ]" in the transcription have been filled in by the contributor.

Note 2:  Bottom part of headstone broken off.  Earlier transcriptions state that the bottom line reads:  "Aged 1 yr & 1 mo".

Note 3:  Year of birth on this headstone was transcribed as 1874 in Gone But Not Forgotten (transcription on this site), but it is clearly 1871 on the headstone.

Note 4:  Year of birth on this headstone was transcribed as 1867 in Gone But Not Forgotten (transcription on this site), but it is clearly 1865 on the headstone.

Note 5:  The inscription on this stone was very hard to decipher.  I'm not absolutely sure what the 4th and 6th lines are.
