Obituary Online notes for Henry ISLEY
The year on Henry's tombstone is unclear and has been interpreted as 1801, but I believe it was meant to be 1804. Every census gives his age as ending in a six: 46, 56, 66, and 76. If you read his death date as October 29, 1885 and calculate back, you conclude with a birth date of June 5, 1804, not 1801.
