There is a small base about the right size to be his inside the fence)
4556/4557
SWINEBROAD, Henry, Cir 1795 - Cir 1845 (age and death based on the 1840
and 1850 censuses; no grave can positively be identified as his. but this was
his farm and family.)
SWINBROAD, Elvira, 1806 - (cir 1855) (Listing her here is more
precarious. Did she go to Texas with her son and die there, but based on the
census she was
deceased by 1860 making that not likely.)
