Oakvale, Mercer County, West Virginia, USA
Burial
Brown Cemetery
Oakvale, Mercer County, West Virginia, USA
Memorial ID 198524135"Additional Information Posted:
"The Mercer County register of deaths gave his age at death as 82 years, 3 months, 12 days, and his date of birth as Jun 23, 1870. However, he gave November 4, 1872, as his birthdate on his World War I draft card. He had worked as a section foreman for the Norfolk & Western Railway. He married Martha A. Ailiff in 1895 in Mercer County, and was married at the time of his death. His cause of death was apoplexy, with gangrene of the left foot as a contributory cause. His father was Marshall Brown, and his mother's name is given as Elizabeth Farman, but is believed by descendants to have been Elizabeth Lowman, daughter of Jacob Lowman and Frances Pender."
