Photo of the tombstone available at Find-a-Grave. Tombstone inscription: "Elwood S., son of John and Martha Althause, died March 29 1859 aged 66 yrs 9 mths 3 dy"

His birth date is calculated from age at death which is possibly not correct as it calculates a date which is before the date of death of his father's first wife! I tend to think his age at death may have been figured wrong which would throw the calculated birth date wrong. Possible church records could be found to verify his birth or baptism date. Further research is needed.
