    When Robert Darling died 13 April 1836, his family erected a headstone in Darling Run Cemetery in Cohocton County, Ohio, to which he moved in 1806, marking the year of his birth in 1753, and replaced it with a new headstone in 1920 which changed the year of his birth to 1762. Although the DAR accepted 1753 as the year of his birth, all in the family did not because one of the census records considerably lowered his age. Whatever the reasons for not accepting 1753, no one could change a newspaper obituary which said that Robert Darling was 84 years old when he died.
