Full name: Joseph Brigham Green
Birth: 2 Sep 1859 Fort Beaufort, Cape, South Africa
Death: 22 Jun 1916 Wallace, Shoshone, Idaho
Father: John Green
Mother: Margaret Matilda Kirkman
Spouse: Jessie Williams Green - memorial # 20987481

I notice that the tombstone has his birth year 1856. I have 1859, but who knows, maybe it was 1856? My sources on his birth year being 1859 are:
1 - When the family immigrated from South Africa in 1863 his age was given as three years old. There is no birth record that I know of.
2 - In the 1870 census his age is given as 10.
3 - In the 1900 census he gives his birth as Sep 1859.
