Note: --- "John W. Sumner born November the 22 1860." John was 6 months old on the 1860 Census, which means that he was born in November of 1859. JDS/MKF
--- "John Sumner , living near Horton station, Hamilton county, committed suicide on Friday evening, by taking strychnine, He was about thirty years of age. He and his wife had been having trouble." According to the information available to us, he was only 23 years old and not "about thirty years of age." The family Bible says that he died 2 June 1883, while the Indianapolis News reports that he died Friday evening, 1 June 1883. JDS/MKF

...There is no entry in this source for a gravemarker for John Moore (wife Lavisa). Amanda Sumner is the daughter of John and Lavisa Moore. John W. Moore is incorrect and should be John W. Sumner as he is the son of G. C. [not G. G.] and Amanda (Moore) Sumner. JDS
