John's headstone provides a birth year of 1871, however, funeral records and his death certificate say he was born in 1870. An 1870 birth year corresponds with the age provided when he died of 86. It may be that his headstone is incorrect.
There's also conflicting information about the state in which he was born. His death certificate says Ohio. His marriage license is unreadable but seems to say he was born in Wayne, Indiana which does correspond with where his parents married. Census records all say Indiana with the exception of 1920; it says he was born in Ohio. The 1880 census, which is most likely to have been information provided by his parents, says he was born in Indiana.
