Note: His tombstone states he was born in 1872 however his WWI draft reg. states May 11, 1873. Since he signed the draft card you would think he would know when his birthdate was. Further verification of the 1873 birth year is found in: "The People Came, The Osborn County Genealogical and Historical Society, Osborne, KS 67473; The Osborne County Farmer, Publisher, Osborne, KS; 1977; pg. 362." This manuscript contains a bio for Jonathan W. Addison and states in part "Three children were born to them: Arthur L. born in 1873...."
