Stone reads as followsJohn F SmyerDied June 3 1900Aged 78 years 2 mid19 days...Inscription below this was illegible in failing light on cloudy day...With respect Chaplain Chawley. P.S. There are two headstones for the same person with the original apparently representing a family headstone and a newer one alongside family members. Both spellings Smyre and Smyer are represented in the plot. I will add photos showing what I mean.

His second stone is the one to the lower right. JF and Jane were Smyer and Clara was Smyre according to the stones. Hope this helps

This is the second headstone placement shown in next photo. Transcription reads âthe dead shall be raisedâ. He was also apparently a Doctor by trade.
