Death

1893. [15]
Note: Burial records indicated burial in Booneville because that's where the cemetery is located, but that doesn't automatically mean that he died there. Sources detailing the POD have not yet been located, despite what the unsourced FAGM may state. Thomas did reside in Boonville Township on the 1860, 1870, and 1880 census years.

Burial

1893. Boonville Cemetery. Find A Grave: Memorial #89577222 [16], [17], [18]

Note: Find A Grave memorial might be linked to incorrect Margaret Zachary. The widow of David Zachary was born circa 1785 and not 1803. There was a Margaret (Todd) Zachary that married a Thomas Vestal in 1823, but don't believe this profile is that Thomas, as this profile would have only been 16 y/o at the time of that marriage.Priest-412 20:32, 26 July 2015 (EDT)
