Note: I cannot help but wonder if whoever transcribed his death certificate inadvertently reversed the 6 and 8 and if it should have been 1868 instead of 1886. Ben's death certificate lists him as buried in Veale Cemetery in Eastland County, Texas.....however the original Veale Cemetery is in Stephens County (maybe the county lines were changed) and is now known as Mt. Zion Cemetery. There is a Historical Marker so designating.
