WILLIE
Son of
J.H & J. ANDERSON
Died Aug 1, 1863
Aged 3Y. 5M. 15D.
Note by photographer Alan Saltsman: In April of 2009 I photographed almost every gravestone in this cemetery. At that time, I observed that many of the gravestones had fallen over. I then revisited the cemetery in late November, 2009 and I am pleased to report that somebody had been doing restoration work on some of the gravestones, including this one. So I have added more recent photos of the gravestone. One advantage is that after waiting for the sun to be in the correct position and retaking the photos, I was then able to read the age at death, which then allowed me to calculate the exact DOB.
