BIRTH: This childs name provided by Rendell Austin. I would have thought he was born in Ohio but Rendell said there is a headstone in Watervliet Cemetary with the name of Erwin on it. Are there any family records on this child? He could have been a grandchild buried on the lot with Thomas and Jenette. Needs more research. If there was a 1st child I would have thought he would have been born in Ohio when Eugene was born there. Also Thomas and Janette were married in 1860 the 1860 fed census Cuyahoga Co.,Ohio. No marriage recorded in Cuyahoga Co,Ohio Is there a birth and death date on the headstone. I also didn't find a record of this child in the Watervliet Cem. records 1,321,501 item 2 lot 160 Rendall I also found a record of a burial Watervliet burial records 1,321,501 item 2 p.16 for a burial of infant son of Amos Austin died Feb 14, 1894 age 2 months Last name spelled Osten. Do you know if this is a child of your family?
