| Note | Thanks to Find-a-Grave, John's name appears on his family's gravestone in Fairview Cemetery, Earlville, Delaware County, Iowa. The photo of the stone shows the inscription for John and tells that he was killed at Vicksburg, Mississippi, on 19 May, 1863. It states that his age was 41 years and 17 days. His age is calculated from this information. Probably, John's name is commemorated on the gravestone and it's likely that he is buried elsewhere.
Iowagravestones.org also has an excellent record of this cemetery with photos of Matthews family gravestones. |
