ISn't that the truth Timm. Mu husband's grandmother's headstone gives her
death date as November 5, 1931 she actually died in November 5, 1929. Evidently her stone
was put on later and whoever put the stone on had her death year wrong as we have found
her obit and death certificate.

The clue is in this sentence
For years following the incident people turned up either claiming to know
something about Charlie
Just because it is chiseled in stone don't make it true... Just like my
maternal grandmothers's stone... she knocked 11 years off her birth date. Vanity
and pride might not make it into the grave, but it get real close
