There is the possibility that he is buried in another cemetery in Metamora or Salt Creek Township in Franklin County. When Helen Moore prepared her report on the Peppertown cemeteries, she prepared plot lists and crossreferenced alphabetical lists.

Help is needed from informed readers to determine which name or date is the correct one.
