Notes:
                   I also have Jul 5,1803 as a birthdate. Moved to Oregon. This was from the Robeson Genealogy. Said he died in 1873.
   They were in CA in 1860, Iowa in 1850. His brother George was reportedly killed in 1855, going to CA.


There is a headstone with the dates 4 Jul 1800 - Jun 22 1875. This is in the Summit Cemetery.  He was an MD.  I think that this is him. All info seems to look like he had various birthdates for the same person.
