There are numerous years of birth for Mr. Hartsell. The 1880 US Federal Census shows he was two years old June 1880, which would have yielded Sep 1877. His obituary shows 7 September 1876, one source shows 7 September 1881 and another 7 September 1882. Since we know that he was born before 1880 and at least two years old, I am going with obituary date; however, I am leaving date on marker for now. (14 September 2019)
