   FamilySearch ID: MHDZ-SQX.

  Noted events in his life were:

1. He has conflicting birth information. His tombstone reads 1862 but researcher Mary Bougher Hutton points out why 22 Jun 1852 is correct:
1) In 1860 he was age 8 on the census.
2) In 1910 he was 57 on the census.
3) On his death certificate, it says 1842, but gives his age at death as 60 years, 11 months, 16 days. Subtracted from the death date of June 8, 1913, that calculates 23 Jun 1852, a day off.

James had no real estate of value, and his personal estate was worth $325. The post office was Dorseyville.
