Notes:
The top of the stone has been broken off for quite some time... In the cemetery inscriptions of 1984 from Tuscarawas County this stone is listed as John Arbogast, died 13 Sep 1850... As we can tell from photos the date of death is actually 13 Sep 1859... John was still living and counted in the 1860 census in his son Frederick's household so it can not possibly be him... The stone had to read Magdalena wife of John Arbogast before it was broken... The date of birth of 26 Feb 1974 for Magdalena comes from the inscription of 65y 6m 15d that is on the gravestone... The date of birth of 19 Jan 1794 comes from the original birth record for Magdalena Wagner in Rittershoffen that can be found in the Archives Departementales Du Bas-Rhin...
