According to his death certificate, Joseph F. Garwood died at the age of 65, not 63 as his memorial page from Monroe County at FindAGrave.com indicates. Death Certificate lists his occupation as "Operator."
I'm also confused that Joseph has grave sites in both Calhoun County and Monroe County, Michigan. His father listed on both his death certificate and his grave in Calhoun County, is "Joseph G. Garwood," and not Joseph C. as listed in the 1850 Census. All sources agree that his mother was mother was Martha, or Martha N. Bell.
