Research Notes
Year of Death: Hunt's book has "1894". The Find A Grave memorial has in the date field "1884", there is a photo of the gravestone, but I find the photo unreadable. Giving the gravestone photo taker and the memorial manager some credit, if they are using 1884, they must have viewed it in person and can read the date in the orginial photo. Using that thinking, I will go with the Hunt book as having a typo for the year printed. Making the Wikitree profile year 1884, to avoid further Wikitree error reports.
