Death* | 18 February 1834 | John died on 18 February 1834 at Accomack Co, VA. The tombstone book shows him as John Edwards, husband of Ann S. Edwards, who died 18 Feb 1832(sic) at the age of 37 years. (NOTE: This grave could not be located in the 1980s for the tombstone book and it was noted that the information was taken from information collected in the late 1930s. The documents at the Acc Co Clerk's Office regarding the inventory, sales & audit for the estate of John A. Edwards, indicate that the inventory was taken 28 Feb 1834 & the list of Contra (credits) included cash found in the house in Feb 1834. Based on this information it seems evident that the old tombstone must have been faded, being over 100 years old when it was read in the late 1930s, and the year was more likely 1834, not 1832.)2,3 |
