Gravestones

Ordered by Year of death. NOte the duplicate entries for John Melvin dying in 1826. ,One gives a transcription of gravestone inscription, the other gives the genealogists data, which differs from the Gravestone transcription. This John Melvin was probably born in 1757/58 (see comments below), which implies that he is a contemporary of Joseph Melvin, not his son. That implies that there were two Melvin families in the area, perhaps headed by two brothers. Some of the other gravestones may represent children from either family, and probably should not be the sole basis for establishing the child list of either John or Joseph Melvin.

Melvin, John 1764 17 Apr. 1826 Duplicate entry in Findagrave. Same DOD's but different DOB's. Same gravestone pictured.
This one is difficult to read in photo, but age at death can be read on the other stone, indicating he died in his 69th year, suggesting a DOB of 1757/58
Melvin, John Jefferson 5 Oct. 1758 17 Apr. 1826 Duplicate entry in Findagrave. Same DOD's but different DOB's. Same gravestone pictured. Both difficult to read. This one shows his death as "in his 69th year", from which a DOB of 1757/58 would be calculated
