Biographical Information
For a brief biography, see Westwood: A Historical and Interpretive View of Oberlin's Cemetery, Oberlin, Ohio (Oberlin: Oberlin Historical and Improvement Organization, 1997), p. 38. Note the discrepancy between the death date on the marker (12/8/1862?) and the death/burial year on the printout (3/29/1865); a reburial, presumably. Check the original burial register.
