submitter's notes:

* Other sources including his obituary and the 1860 census indicate he was born in 1857--August 1st. The age at death on this document does not compute to the birth date listed on it. It computes to a birth of 1 Sep 1861 which is definitely an error.

** This writing was difficult to read and may be an error.
