Notes

I am not sure why there is an issue for the probate record being considered correct death information. I have many probate records that are not finished until sometimes 10 yrs after the death of the person. Example it took more than a year to finish up my husbands. Isaiah McCartney (Jamima's father in law) probate was still open in 1853 and he died in 1847, Probate for Jamina again, but her fathers (Silas) will was not opened until 1880 in Michigan concerning the land that she inherited from him in Gratiot Co. Michigan.

If the stone that gives his birth at 1800 is the correct stone, ^[12]it could be a stone carver mistake or a peron gave James' incorrect age to the carver.
