"Aged 72 years 10 months 10 days." The birth date in 1764 is based on the usual interpretation of the grave marker inscription, which creates a problem: his father Jonathan, if born in 1749, would be 15. An alternative date of birth, 20 Nov 1774, is suggested by some secondary records. The year 1774 is consistent with his age brackets in the 1820 and 1830 census, which taken together suggest 1771-1775.
