MARCH 6, 1878
MARCH 8, 1964

The year of John's birth has to be wrong because John does not show up with his parents in the 1880 census. In the 1900 census, John is living with his parents, and is shown born Dec 1880. It seems unlikely the day and month on the tombstone are wrong because that is the date John's birthday would have been celebrated throughout his life, so for the month in the census, we'll have to call it enumerator error. The error on the tombstone has to be attributed to whoever ordered the stone. Either that or we've attached John to the wrong parents.
