Note that the birth date of 15 October 1819 found on the gravestone of James Madison Frederick (thought to be a brother of Radford Jones Frederick) creates a problem with the purported 9 August 1819 birth date of Radford Jones Frederick. If they are indeed brothers, one of the birth dates is incorrect.
