The information was taken from the actual Grave Stones in Hope Cemetery, Hornellsville, Stueben County, New York. Since the birth date was not readable, it is believed that the death date must have also been difficult to read, and likely that the stone would read 19 July 1864, if in good condition. This is in line with the 20 July 1864 death date given in Surrogate court documents.
