I received conflicting dates from the same source. His birth date is either Jan.5, 1846 or May 1, 1846. His marriage date is either June 10, 1869, or Oct. 6, 1869. It seems that the person that provided this information inverted the meaning of the numbers on one of the pages. I have not tried to find out which is correct, so please contact me with corrections.
