Suggestion ref separator in location "Arkansas/Missouri co. line" which I altered to Missouri Township, Montgomery, Arkansas, United States

Also rearranged some of the text materials placing his wife and the list of children in the Biography box since they would be part of his life story

Also added ref to Findagrave since you have placed a photo of the headstone on the profile
