    [Note: the probate file shows the death year is wrong, the death record above is correct. The photo is slighty chopped off at the bottom. The age appears to say 54 (based on spacing, and a straight line that looks intentional - making the alleged one into a four), but the memorial page says 51.]

    [Note: the estate was insolvent, creditor paid pennies on the dollar, so not much interesting genealogical information, so a sparse abstract is given.]
    [Note: 6 dates some March 1834 and March 1835, but key items are one 1834 corrected to 1835, and deadline for account in 1836, makes it appear 1835 is the correct one. A day in March 1834 would precede all accounts of his death. It appears Lucy used the 1834 while the court used 1835.]
