    Certificate of Death

    The Tennessean (Nashville, Tennessee) 20 Feb 1908, Thu Page 2

  • Notes 
    • I believe his birth year is most likely 1847. In the 1900 his birth year is given as 1847 and was most likely reported by his wife, Martha. His son, Thomas was the informant identified in his Death Certificate. I believe it is more likely his wife knew his exact birth year versus his son. (David H. Drollinger 20 Feb 2019)
